Always a top seller we really like the features of this indoor weather projection clock. With the Oregon Scientific BAR338PA ExactSet Projection Alarm Clock you can keep your pretty little head on the pillow in the morning. Just tap the snooze button & the clock will momentarily project the time on the wall or ceiling in soft red light. You can even rotate the projector forward 90 degrees if needed. And being an ExactSet clock, it automatically sets it's own time, day, & date via the US Atomic Clock in Boulder, Colorado. It automatically connects to the Atomic Clock 6 times a day via it's built-in radio receiver. It even adjusts for Daylight Savings Time & Leap Year.

Ambient Devices 7 Day Forecaster

10-1-07-forecaster.jpg

We recently saw this updated and rather large forecaster at Sharper Image. We have the 5 day version, and can see why covering all the days of the week in the 7 day version might be a good idea. The 7-Day Forecaster boasts a six- by six-inch screen, and will show "current conditions and an extended multi-day forecast for 150 locations in the United States." Also the 7 day has information about the UV Index, wind speed and direction, pollen alerts and air quality alerts. We like the updates - especially the wind speed - as it really can help to determine the true temperature. Also - having weather alert warnings should be a standard on any forecasting weather device.

Weather In A Bottle - Stormglass Weather Predicting Instruments

The Stormglass is a bottle full of liquid designed to forecast the weather. The changes in the atmosphere ahead of on-coming weather fronts cause different crystals to grow in the liquid. Each type of crystal predicts a different type of weather – on average, two days in advance. Discovered hundreds of years ago by the early alchemists, the Stormglass was soon adopted by seafarers in particular because of its uncanny ability to predict storms.

You may choose to monitor your Weather In A Bottle Stormglass and let it bring you a new awareness of our everchanging environment, or you may choose just to admire it for the sheer beauty of its constantly evolving crystal formations. We think the former is the way to go - better be on top of the weather than underneath it.

Weather Beamed to Your Clock Radio

The Meteo Personal Weather Clock is not your average weather station clock, this. It can deliver the weather from 176 European cities to your bedside via a radio signal. At no additional costs or fees, the data is simply transmitted to your alarm clock via the radio clock signal from the physical-technical federal agency in Mainflingen, Germany, and via the HBG transmitter located at the Federal Meteorological Office in Switzerland.

Forecasting Umbrella with LED now Available


This umbrella has been injected with some wonderful technology in the handle. A built-in wireless receiver gets a daily weather forecast from Accuweather.com, and blue LEDs will flash to let you know if the forecast is rain or snow. The LEDs located at the bottom of the handle will flash in proportion to the chance of precipitation for your area; if there is a 100% chance, it will flash quickly, and if a 10% chance, it will flash slowly. The umbrella itself is also incredibly well made. When opened, the umbrellas 58" dual-canopy "gust buster" design resists strong wind gusts and keeps you fully sheltered from precipitation.

  • Easy push-button opening action and full length storage sleeve with wrist strap.
  • Blue LEDs in the handle indicate when rain or snow is expected
  • Receives weather data for 150 U.S. locations from Accuweather.com
  • Top quality "gust buster" canopy design
  • Network signal and low battery indicator lights
  • Takes a single "C" size battery (not included)
  • Dimensions: 41 1/2" L x 58" Diameter (it is a large umbrella)/p>

For $99 I hope I never ever get wet.

In-Store Sightings: Weather In Motion clock with Proximity Sensor


We've finally spotted the Weather In Motion clock with Proximity Sensor at Sharper Image. It did work when we approached - the proximity sensor detected our presence. As we approached the unit, the Weather In Motion switched to showing the indoor and outdoor temperature readings, while the time and weather forecast icons automatically reduced in size. We think the size of the unit and the overall readability is quite good.

  • Infrared motion sensor for display change (sensor detection range: 0.5 to 2 feet)
  • Near mode—Displays time, indoor and outdoor temperature and weather forecast
  • Far mode—Displays time, day of the week and weather forecast
  • Displays indoor and outdoor temperature (up to 3 channels)
  • Displays weather forecasts with graphical icons: Sunny, Partly Cloudy, Cloudy and Rainy
  • Automatically sets itself to the U.S. Atomic Clock and adjusts for Daylight Saving Time
  • User selectable 12-24 hour format clock with crescendo alarm with 8-minute snooze function
  • Weekday selectable in 5 languages: English, French, Danish, Italian and Spanish
