Meteo Weather Forecast Watch - Weather On Your Wrist

We've featured this weather wrist watch before from Oregon Scientific, but it appears to be available now. The Meteo Weather Forecast Watch tells you what the weather is going to be like over the next 24 hours. The watch features a reverse LCD display and stopwatch function. Four easy-to-read icons (sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy, and rainy) display the upcoming weather conditions in the next 12 to 24 hours

Egg Shaped Wireless Weather Forecaster from Oregon Scientific

Take the guesswork out of the weather forecast by consulting the Weather Light - the egg shaped weather forecasting wonder. With just a glance at the Weather Light, you'll have the information you need to plan your day.

The Weather Light (why didn't they just say Weather Egg?) features three illuminated weather forecast icons, Sunny, Cloudy and Rainy, that will give you an accurate weather forecast for the day. A simple wave of your hand changes the display, shifting between the precise Atomic time, indoor and outdoor temperature. You can also set the Weather Light to "auto toggle display" mode, and the information will rotate automatically.

In-Store Sightings: Oregon Scientific Crystal Weather Station

We visited Sharper Image over the weekend, and spotted the Oregon Scientific Crystal Weather Station. The crystal weather station is really impressive in person. The crystals of sun, rain, and clouds look pretty amazing, and the display is also very clear and easy to read. The heft of the crystal weather station is also impressive, and we think this is one of the best looking home weather stations we've seen.

Oregon Scientific Recalls 66,000 Weather Radios

Thanks to Brett for writing in to remind us, but it looks like Oregon Scientific is recalling its Scientific Weather Radios because they may fail to receive National Weather Service Alert signals in certain regions of the U.S. — a failure that could jeopardize users' safety.

The recall, announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission applies to the following radios:

• All Hazards Portable Weather Alert Radio, model .
• Portable Public Alert Radio, model WR108.
• Public Alert Weather Station, WRB308.
• John Deere Public Alert Weather Station, WRB308J.

No incidents or injuries have been reported to the company.

The radios were sold in stores in the U.S., through online retailers and in catalogues from December 2005 through June 2007 for between $30 and $150 US. Consumers should not rely on the radios for emergency weather information and should contact Oregon Scientific for a replacement.

Oregon Scientific WMR100/BOXTIT Weather Station Set Review

:

We like the review of the Oregon Scientific WMR100/BOXTIT Weather Station Set and think we might have to find one and test it ourselves.

I have the Oregon Scientific WMR100 which comes with a rain collector, a combined wind/temperature/humidity sensor, a display unit, and various mounting hardware. I tested its accuracy in several ways, including pouring carefully measured amounts of water (from a rain gauge) through the rain collector, comparing the temperature readings with a very accurate thermometer, and holding the wind sensor out the window of a car at 40 mph. The results were impressive. I had previously tried these tests on a LaCrosse weather station as well as one from Radio Shack, neither of which was completely accurate. The Oregon Scientific WMR100 was right on the mark for measuring preciptiation, and also for temperature. The temperature was down to minus 15F one night, and lithium batteries still worked fine. The outdoor temperature sensor is slow to respond to rapidly rising or falling temperature, but this is probably a good design feature to avoid over-reaction to direct sunlight if it's not in the shade. The wind speed readings for 40 mph on the odometer ranged from 40 to 45+ on the display unit, but doing this out the window of a car may not be 100% reliable as a test! The display unit sits firmly on a table (well weighted in the bottom) yet is easy to use as a hand unit. It is a little inconvenient to have to scroll through the settings to see everything -- for example, the readings for rainfall, UV, and barometric pressure do not display simultaneously and it is necessary to use the control buttons to change between these settings in order to see them all. The manual is good in explaining everything. The construction is very sturdy considering that it's made of plastic, and the mounting pole is even metal. All in all I am very satisfied with it and certainly would recommend it over LaCrosse for a number of reasons. From what I would expect for something at this price, I would give it 5 stars.

Crystal Weather Station from Oregon Scientific

Some say you need a crystal ball to predict the weather, but we'd rather have a Crystal Weather Station. The upcoming Oregon Scientific Crystal Weather Station has laser engraved 3D icons in crystal with colour highlighting and a radio controlled digital clock. You can also change the mode of the Crystal Weather Station by waving your hand. The mode will then change from time to indoor temperature.
