They hit this one out of the park to the next time zone!!!. So many times reviews of new tech hardware/software say "easy to set up". And then the opposite is true unless you have an advanced degree in engineering or similar... Not so with the Tempest... WOW !! Setup was done in about 5 minutes flawlessy the first time... It took me more time to mount it on the house, where I wanted it then the set-up of the unit. And so far I could not be happier. It was transmitting data within minutes, and has now been through a couple of nasty storms etc., and running like clockwork. A big tip of the hat on the development of the Tempest. In many ways they underpromise and over deliver... Just an excellent product... Mic drop....

Welcome Update. The previous version was functional and clean, but was getting old and stale. The new interface is a welcome update. Not a major change but the color scheme change is welcome. In particular the better selection of widgets now is a nice add. Would be nice to have more customization options (arrangement of data, breaking out of some things on multiple lines versus combining), and a map would be nice, but it’s good to see the app isn’t being ignored. The Tempest system is too cool to not be supported by a well thought out and evolving app.

Outstanding!. I’ve owned over a half dozen weather stations from various companies over the years. The Tempest station is by far the easiest to set up and it provides an incredible amount of information making it a superior station. The app is easy to setup and maintain providing quick access to your stations information. A great product with a great app.

Forecasts wildly inaccurate. Example to says high 96 and tomorrow 96 models forecast use Windy say high 83 and 81 respectively. Use to be accurate. Verified my location via gps set in app was correct. shows my address in map correct. needs to be corrected by dev soon or this becomes a waste of money. Did November in Dallas predicting a high of over 90° today which would be a tremendous record lol. Not one Model has is forecasted above 70°. Not sure where they’re getting their data or what model they are using but it is very very in accurate which makes the device itself questionable. Used to be good but something changed.

Nice App. Installation went smooth and found good info to help with locating the station. Found other features reading reviews. Thought the rain sensor was reading low, but noticed it seems to catch up to the yard rain gauge by the end of the day. Noticed in the fall season, that falling leaves hitting the sensor on a windy day will trigger a rain event and an alert when there is no rain. Station is 20 ft above the chimney cap so it is still in range of some leaves Will see what happens when it snows

Good weather app, but…. This is a good weather app (and I have their weather station, which is excellent) but I do have a few suggestions. 1- as in many apps, the font of many of the fields is too light to read well. Simply making it a bolder font would make it MUCH better. 2- it has no weather radar view. It would be nice if it had a view like Dark Sky which is the best I’ve ever used. 3- it would be nice to have a rain rate field. It could be the average rate over a few seconds interval.

The Most Accurate Local Weather Yet. it took less than 20 minutes to go from the box to sharing my local weater on the internet and about that long to integrate my local weather date into my lawn sprinkler system, and Air conditioning system. The app makes it all easy and not only provides local weather but virtually block-by-block weather reporting almost anywhere in the country and around the world. If it says to expect rain in 15 minutes, it will rqin in 15 minutes.

Latest Update Issues. I have run the system previously with no issues. After app update to v 5.0 I only have access to current weather information, no history even from 5 minutes ago. I need this history functionality so Weatherflow please restore it or advise how to revert back to previous version. I am not a fan of new color scheme either but will tolerate it if I can get access to my data. I’m still very pleased with the device and it’s capabilities overall, just the app update needs fixed immediately!!!

Can not use without buying hardware. If you dont own a tempest wx station you actually cant use this app AT ALL. Im not sure what the point of crowdsourcing weather information is if others can’t take advantage of all the details gathered in the surrounding communitys. Its currently a scary severe thunderstorm and I was hoping this app could help me out. But now Im just disappointed and upset. Your greed from hoarding this data is abhorrent! I refuse to contribute to the problem so now Im not buying a station! I would have been an easy sale! I thought this would be like the Neighbors app from ring.

Weather Done Smartly. As a retired old weather forecaster I am blown away by my new Weather Flow instrument and their supporting apps. Accurate, dependable, historical, and brilliantly designed. It measures wind, rainfall, and solar from the top of my roof, and temp, humidity, pressure, and lightning strikes from a separate unit under a north-facing eave. It is all networked with a wireless router device in my office. The unit on the roof is solar powered and the whole system has no moving parts! Support is timely and helpful. A couple of weeks ago our local internet provider went down for a few hours. I received email notification from Weather Flow asking if they could help because data had stopped flowing. I waited a number of years for a home weather station. I'm absolutely delighted with the Weather Flow!

Lacks Map, Cannot display more than one station. I changed from a Davis station to a Tempest. Overall I think the station is very good, but it has a couple of annoying nits. First, when mounting, it can only accommodate a 1” diameter pole. Needs to have a wider adapter. Also, the solid state rain sensor is so-so. In the Northwest, we have lighter rain. It’s not so great with lighter rain. The company can disable the software filter for you, which can improve accuracy. WRT the software, it’s a comprehensive piece of software that also shows the local forecast. I knocked one star because of two significant deficiencies: (1) there is no map that shows you the location of your station compared to other stations and that would show conditions at surrounding stations (note that their website has such a map, so integrating it into the software should be easy) and (2) if you don’t own a station, you can’t use the software. One should be able to have the software pull information from any station, even if you don’t own that station. I suspect they think this arrangement will sell more stations, but I think the opposite would help sell stations. If they allowed anyone to install the software and link to any station, they would encourage more people to buy the stations after they realize how cool the software is. A good piece of software with accompanying good hardware. Just a couple of minor issues.

No one else come close to this.... I have been super stoked with my new WeatherFlow Smart Weather Station... and particularly the lightening sensing and notifications. We live where storms can fire up rapidly coming of the mountains, and can have little warning of severe weather. We have kids out riding bikes and playing on the lake, and the lightening alerts give us timely heads-up on developing activity so we can make sure everyone is safe. I have seen the first strike from a developing storm 5 miles away, and have had the alert before I hear the thunder. Amazing!

Love the system. Have been waiting for awhile to get a system at home and this one met everything I was looking for. Since install I love that it integrates into other tempest systems and makes mine even more accurate. I find it better than the local system that is based on what is happening at the airport. Highly recommend the system.

Great hardware but app needs tweaking. The Tempest weather station is great, but you desperately need to add the ability to set a perimeter for weather notifications. Living in Florida, I’m getting bombarded by lighting alerts for distances well further away than I care. I can’t even imagine how bad these are going to get when we get alerts for every storm within a 30 mile radius. I don’t want to turn off the alerts all together, but I will if there’s not an option to set a range.

WEATHER STATION OF THE FUTURE. The Tempest weather station is outstanding. Easy to set up and install. The real jewel is the Tempest Application. It provides more data and a historical perspective that is not easily found in other instruments without a lot of work. If you’re looking for the weather station of the future, tempest and the associated weather application is it. I love it, I think you can too.

Great System. So far I have been extremely pleased with the simplicity and accuracy of the Tempest system. It is extremely sensitive to changes in wind speed and direction. One advantage over conventional wind instrumentation is it continues to work during an ice storm which I just experienced. Also I got to see how the rain gauge would respond to freezing rain. It underestimated the freezing rain where for regular rainfall it can be up to 20% on the high side. In summary Tempest is extremely accurate with the exception of measuring rainfall and it could potentially be adjusted with a fudge factor.

Ver. 3.0. This is a very cool update for that app. I really like the daily history log easy to read and quick reference. I would like to see in the future more color coded section, more interactive, wind graphs, possible integrated weather map. But any ways this is a really good update. The weather station is awesome and I recommend the weather station and app. Easily 5 out 5 stars ! Keep up the great work, I look forward to future updates and new products!! Thanks !!

Enjoying my Tempest so far. Couple requests: - Would love to see you guys add a dark mode to the app. - please add your station map to the app as opposed to having to leave the app for the website - please add a watch app as well as CarPlay. There are currently no good weather apps in CarPlay - might also be cool to add the ability to report weather observations in case there are weather events that are not captured by the station.

Close to perfect. Love the hardware itself - not having to ever worry about battery life is wonderful. Agreed with others about the rain sensor’s inaccuracy, however it’s good enough for a ballpark number. Infrequent connectivity issues but still probably 99.9% uptime. Overall highly recommended vs other weather stations. I have tried the major competitors and this is my favorite. The app is fine, however I have a big gripe with the visualizations. I would love to see an auto scale/resize on the time series data. Just resize via pinch to zoom like with financial apps for example. I’m sure you can do better! Or is there an API and I can do it myself? All this data not being put to use within an app that is perfect for it! Everything else is great - it always works and the minimalist UI is fast and very readable. Thanks for keeping the updates coming!

Nice device. This Tempest has a lot of promise. The only downside I see currently is that it doesn’t accurately pick up on the amount of lighter rains; otherwise, after three weeks I have found it to be quite accurate. I am sure some firmware modifications will address the rainfall shortcoming. UPDATE: This week we had a good rain. My Tempest started recording the lightest sprinkles which lasted for a couple of hours before the intensity increased. When the rains were over the next day, I compared the rainfall recorded by the Tempest (1.45 inches) to my standard gauge about 25 feet away (1.40 inches). I’m convinced the difference is the ability of the haptic sensors to pick up the lighter stuff that really doesn’t accumulate in a standard glass gauge. I take back my initial review.

The Real Deal. Very happy with my Tempest Weather Station. Set up was easy and once I decided where and how to mount it, it has been performing as advertised. The haptic rain sensor seems to be extremely accurate when compared to my old analog rain collection gauge. I would recommend this weather station to anyone who wants to geek out on weather...or simply keep track of exactly what’s going on at their location. It’s the Real Deal! The iPhone/iPad integration is great, too. Now, how about a widget/app for us Apple Watch users?

Great Weather Station, App Not So Much.... I love the Tempest weather station, but the point of the exercise here is to rate the app, not the weather station. I’ve had the station and the app for three months and, up to now, the two have worked flawlessly in tandem. Today however, the app decided that it would no longer open. The station is still online, because, if I go to the website, I can access it, but the app will not open. When I click on it, I will get the opening blue screen and the app will close. I’v restarted the hub, but again, the issue is not with the weather station itself. I uninstalled/reinstalled the app... Same problem. I tried it on another of my IOS devices... Same problem. I tried it on my wife’s IOS device... Same problem. Something has dramatically (and recently) gone wrong with the IOS app and no amount of fussing will help. EDIT: The app developers got back to me and there was a fix put in place that rectified the crashing-on-opening issue. App working just fine across all iOS devices.

Tempest Weather System. Tempest absorbed Weather Flow who I bought my first two weather receivers from. I have had weather systems for years, most systems with several components. So Weather Flow technology was amazing, and compact. Now the Tempest is only one unit, and it does everything! The new solar panels pull in the energy to keep it all working. The information is always there at your finger tips. The forecasting gets better as the system learns your climate signature. The Tempest app gives you a history of your weather components, as well as immediate info. I’m very pleased! And I have used the technical support team, and they respond quickly and efficiently, and even check back to make sure everything is performing as it should!!! 5 STARS!!

So much data, so underdeveloped a graphing interface.. The app has nice front end main pages, but if you want to dive into the data, it’s severely lacking. The graphing UI is clunky, slow, and barely seems to support multitouch. I have a $30 Govee sensor that presents temp and humidity data in a far better fashion in its app. Honestly, it seems like a pretty unrefined port from another platform. Some suggestions: Leverage the powerful multitouch UI capabilities of iOS to make data exploration more seamless (eg live horizontal / time and vertical / scale pinch to zoom). Allow custom graphs overlaying any number of data features at a time, or stacking graphs to show multiple features in time sync. Build data graphing / trends into the main pages. Just check out a Bloomberg terminal or news show to see some very effective and compact text and graphical hybrid data presentation. I look forward to what the developers can do with all the data they have to share from a very nice piece of hardware.

Best Comprehensive Weather Station Available. This brilliantly-designed, sturdy, compact, wireless weather station using sonic, haptic, and computer technology provides not only instantaneous but also historical data of all meteorological parameters. Particularly noteworthy is the Tempest’s comparative data access to multiple other local/regional Tempest stations coupled with experiential learning and AI to produce truly local (“micro”) and regional (“macro”) forecasting that always equals or beats the NWS. The personal Tempest webpage that comes with the station is accessible by cell phone or computer anywhere in the world with Internet as well as to multiple family members. Moreover, at an individual owner’s discretion the data can be shared with The Weather Underground’s network!! I live right on the North Atlantic coastline and have been fascinated by its ever-changing weather conditions, for decades using analog wireless instruments: namely Maximum’s Criterion Maestro Anemometer/Mini-Max Temperature together with a Chelsea Professional Shipstrike aneroid barometer augmented by internet data out of Pease International Airport’s tower. I find my new Tempest unit tracks all this data precisely, but gives far more meteorological information AND historical trending. Perhaps the most amazing aspect of the Weatherflow Tempest is just how easy it is to get it set up and running!!

Functionally fantastic, one flaw.. The app is as good as I could have hoped for. Set up and use are extremely easy and clean. The only issue is the inability to schedule notifications or mute them for a select period of time. No need for 30 (very timely and accurate) lightning notifications at midnight as a storm rolls in. Would love to be able to force touch and mute a notification for a half hour OR select to mute notifications around bedtime. Another option would be to add a mileage range to notify within. Often get notifications as a storm rolls past us 20 miles away. All in all, fantastic work! Let’s tweak the notifications and we’d be a 5 star app.

Happy weather nut. I have this running alongside a few other stations (Davis VV2 and AmbientW). The hardware is accurate and far more compact than competitors. And however this happens, the local forecasts have been more accurate than some weather apps. We are on a high plateau and lighting detection works well. Set-up and WI-FI connection were effortless. The APP is stable - and finally found the historical graphing functions.

Great for iPad and iPhone. App works well on my iPad always on display and on the iPhone too. Just the right amount of main screen content without being busy. Really like how I can move the display cards around to prioritize what live readings are most important to me. Feature rich with graphs, device status, and smart integration capabilities. Simple setup and easy to use for the whole family.

Awesome weather station. Hands down the best weather station I’ve owned. Very easy to use and to install and the app is easy to read and navigate through, but I do wish that in the history view that you would add a button so that all you have to do is select Today and it will take you to the current history and not have to filter through the months and days.

Sandy Creek Airport. My old weather station had failed after nearly 15 years with intermittent component failures a constant irritant. I’d been looking for a replacement system, even though we’re not an official weather reporting site for NOAA, to produce local weather for our private aviation operations. We do have such a site about 12 miles from us, but conditions can vary given local topography. Tempest looked like a good fit. I bought the system and it has turned out to be a perfect fit! We can obtain weather instantly from such devices as our Alexa, from our phones and even from a linked view on our airport website. The families here now enjoy instant surface barometric pressure, wind reports, temperature, dew point and lightening/rain advisories. Most reassuring the official reporting station 12miles north is alomost always in agreement with our station except for local surface wind and always in agreement on baro pressure.

App needs dark mode. The app & web sites needs a dark mode!! In my cabin, I use an Apple iPad as a permanent, always on, wall mounted monitor for the Tempest. In my shop, I use a dedicated, always on, built Windows 10 PC with dual, wall mounted 21’ monitors (Tempest open in MS Edge browser in portrait mode on one monitor & My Radar Pro on 2nd monitor). The default UI for both is extremely, way to bright and needs to have a dark mode. It’s 2021, time to get in the game with a dark mode!! The actual weather station is fine but is never seen. The UI is what is seen and used. Dark mode please. Thank You

The Best Home Weather System. I’ve been using the Tempest Weather Station for about 6 weeks. It was a simple 5 minutes from switching the unit on until I was getting weather data on my devices. I really like the accuracy of the temperature, wind, rainfall, barometer changes. This is by far the absolutely best home weather station I have had on over 25 years of using different systems. Sharing the app for our location’s weather with family really makes me appreciate the accuracy and simplicity of this advanced system. Also have Tempest online with Weather Underground. WU rates my data input a “Gold” status. 100% recommend the Tempest Station and the App.

Don’t waste your money. I owned several of these weather stations and this one was the most expensive. I like that the battery stays charged and no moving parts. The station is not accurate with rain fall and don’t get me started on wind speed, we have had 50 mph winds only to see 13 or 14 mph on the sensor. This station for what I paid is highly disappointing! I was looking for a more accurate one and still haven’t found one except the National weather service. Save your money and use the National Weather Bureau!

Superb weather station and app!!. I have been a fan of Davis (still a great PWS) for many years and no one has come close to their level of quality, until the WeatherFlow Tempest was released. This is a great user friendly and maintenance free unit that has an awesome team backing it up. This recent upgrade to the app makes it that much more useful to a weather geek and the novice. You can’t go wrong with the fantastic customer service to boot!!

Pretty nice. Please allow dark mode and better 3rd party integration!. All in all, it’s pretty competent . Keep up the improvements. I would offer the following in no particular order: 1)PLEASE allow dark mode, or better yet, customizable displays. Since there’s no “base unit” as on competitors units (not knocking it, I actually prefer mobile), why not allow users to at least change color scheme, font size, and order of information? 2)Informative & nice graphing. Would be nice to be able print those graphs with scaling, however. (Without a screenshot). 3)Apparently Tempest sends data to its hub and app very frequently(3 sec), but WeatherFlow servers upload to 3rd parties (Weather Underground,etc.) somewhat less frequently (3-15 minutes based on observations). This often results in my PWS not appearing on WU Wundermap. Are there plans to change this or shall I purchase a third party Meteobridge (extra $160) to work around this shortcoming? Less expensive WX brands don’t seem to suffer from this.

Northern Mexico Update. Yesterday here just north of Albuquerque, Northern Mexico we had rain, freezing rain, and snow accompanied by 45 mph winds. The Tempest was spot on wonderful for the winds. But NOT for the precipitation. My AccuRite station (and four other non-Tempest weather stations within 0.25 miles) all recorded between 0.46” and 0.52” of precipitation. My new Tempest recorded 0.22” of precipitation. That may have been correct for the liquid precipitation, but it completely missed everything else. I am very disappointed. Is there a “workaround” or “fix” in the recording/reporting software for the non-liquid types of precipitation???? The iPhone app is pretty decent once you learn all the tricks for expanding the particular area if interest (wind, precipitation, temp). I wish there was a weekly/monthly/annual ytd summary available. And the interface with WeatherUnderground is perfect - simple, accurate, continuous.

Would Appreciate Getting the Functionality From The Weather Flow App Restored. Lowering the rating to one star due to the support staff in the app support forum deleting questions from long standing users as to why functionality was stripped from app the new app. The equipment is useless without the interface and the original purchasers and supporters of Weatherflow Smartweather purchased the product in good faith and trust. 5 panels or detailed information on the stellar original app are missing in the new app. Since the equipment is totally dependent on the app to view the data, I would appreciate the original panels be restored as they have been condensed into one summary panel without the detail The new home page on the new app is way to busy and icon laden and the weather forecast shown is not the reason for buying a weather observation station. Forecasts are available from many other apps and sources however our home weather data is not. It’s all about our station data.

Awesome!. This is the first WeatherStation I’ve ever purchased and I’m glad I waited until now! It was very easy to set up and installation was a snap. Being able to share this data with others is a plus but I really am looking forward to integrating it into my Crestron system for advanced weather functions.

Tempest Needs APRS Support DESPERATELY!!!. I LOVE LOVE LOVE your product! As a licensed amateur radio operator, I am interested in being able to send WX updates via APRS (ideally via RF through the TNC in my TM-D710G but I wouldn’t be opposed to IP-based APRS updates either). If Tempest has some form of serial interface (Bluetooth maybe?) it would be a fairly trivial effort to incorporate what needs to be transmitted to the TNC. One of your biggest competitors (Davis Instruments) incorporated APRS in their WeatherLink for APRS. I’d be willing to bet you’d get a pretty hardcore group of ham radio followers that would jump on the Tempest bandwagon if you added APRS functionality to Tempest! Supposedly there’s a third party piece of software called Weather Display that people are using to make this happen with Tempest today but I’m still trying to track it down.

Worth the wait. This is an elegant product: no moving parts, accurate, fast, very easy to set up. The range from the central hub to the sensors is as good as claimed and does not appear to be affected by rain. This cost a fraction of the high-end Davis weather station it replaced, but it appears to be at least as well made. It uploads to the internet automatically, by itself. Excellent read-out. This works very well!

Good hardware, disappointing app. Nice hardware, but i feel like the app is trying to hide the actual info from my personal weather station behind forecasts and things I’m not interested in seeing. The old version was preferable, where it was just my station’s readings, history, and graphs, but now that’s hidden away under the little icon at the top, and launching the app always starts me in things I have no interest in. These changes also impact the web links, but you can modify the URL for the old interface. Additionally, you can’t set the unit to Celsius and then share the web link to your station to your American neighbours as they can’t then view it in Fahrenheit, your personal preference is also what’s reflected on the web link, instead of allowing them to pick unit.

Simple Setup. Super easy setup process. Literally took less than five minutes to connect to home Wi-Fi, create an account and do other config. Nice to see weather at the house from home or away. Been having the most fun with lightning strike notification. You really get a sense for how fast and how soon thunderstorms are moving toward home.

Great Weather System. The Tempest is a great weather system. The hardware and app took about 5 minutes to set up. Once you have everything installed and online, you have instant up to the date weather data coming from the hardware. This data is integrated and processed through Weatherflow's AI to produce hyperlocal weather forcasts that are guarenteed to be more accurate than the publically available forecasts. The only issue that I have is of my own making. Do to siting limitations my wind readings are always low compared to other stations in the area. The app itself is great and all of the data is easily found and tracked. The app is simple and intuitive. It is very easy to locate the information that you need, and everything is logically layed out. There are even charts that allow you to see semi-historical data. The unit easily connects the Weather Underground and some great third party apps. The bottom line is if you like or need to know local weather data, the Tempest is a great solution which provides data through an intuitive interfact. I highly reccomend the Tempest.

Clever device but UI has accessibility issues. First, understand that Tempest Weather Station is a device for collecting local surface meteorological observations for use by Weather Flow. It does this reasonabley well. It is very good at thermodynamics properties measurement. It is less good at wind speed and rainfaill. WeatherFlow collects the data and provides it to weather services for use in model initialization. In return, it provides a local forecast for your location with more precise time of arrival information than that in NWS official area forecasts. This helps with planning outdoor activities. The Tempest Weather app lets you see the current conditions and forecast on the go. I'm post-cataract surgery but still have near focus deficits. I have trouble reading the percipitation probability values in the iPadOS version of the app. The iPhone version is more readable. The temperatures above them are easily read. WeatherFlow needs to review the UI for readability. If Gramms can't read it, it needs work. WeatherFlow offers a number of activity specific Apps for sailing, kite surfing, agricultural operations, etc that use the WeatherFlow refined local data and modeling. These are subscription services. They may not require a local weather station. These are an example of what WeatherFlow can do with its refined local data and modeling.

Super easy to setup. Wow! Easiest setup ever! I was up and running in 5 minutes including downloading the app. Placing the sensor head is also super easy compared to the 2 other weather stations I have setup in the last 5 years. With NO moving parts, this system is a true game changer in terms of simplicity. It that eventually translates into good longevity, these guys have a home run on their hands!

Great weather station, app needs work. I really love this weather station, but the app is a bit frustrating to me… it is perfectly functional and stable, I just get frustrated trying to use the graphs because they have a “smoothing” function, drawing a smooth line between ~5-10 data points, rather than plotting all of the data. That might be acceptable for temp and pressure, but for wind speed, it’s awful. The average wind speed and wind gusts are completely different depending on your “zoom level” because it tries to smooth the graph based on a handful of data points. I wish they’d just used the graphing function from their other app, SailFlow, as those wind graphs are FAR more useful, user friendly, easy to understand, and representative of the actual behavior.

Fantastic weather station. This is a fantastic weather station. The best one I’ve own! I would have given it a five star rating if it had one additional feature. More on that later. The unit was extremely simple to setup. It started sending data to the app as soon as the setup was complete. I had a thunderstorm the evening I received the unit. Lightning detection was accurate and timely. Rain onset, rate, and amount was accurate and notification was right on time. Highly recommend. Now what would it take for that 5th star? An Apple Watch app and complications. I rely on weather data on my Apple Watch more than my phone. I currently have complications from Carrot Weather on my watch but would love to have the data from the Tempest displayed. Any plans on creating an Apple Watch app? That would complete the system.

Feature requests - dark mode, etc. Great app so far, but a few additions would improve it further: Dark mode that honors the device setting to switch in time or stay dark. Setting to always start the app in the weather station device view, vs the forecast view. Always show “feels like” beside the temp on the station view. Currently starts out with dew point, then switches to fells like at some point. Many of us are most interested in “feels like”, and that is the primary reason I launch the app before going outside. If “feels like” is not yet calculated, show a “-“ vs dew pt, so we know it is still calculating. Calculate “feels like” better. My acurite station display seems to do a better job of taking temp, wind, humidity, etc into account. I took a screenshot last night that Tempest showed 43.2 degrees F, 38% humidity, 63 mph wind, and showed “feels like” 32 degrees... not even close! Allow settings to show larger primary info (temp, hum, wind, feels like) for permanent display on wall mounted old phone or tablet. I love the new wind display meter, bar graph style. Very effective display. Keep up the great work! Love the weather station!

Best investment hands down. Need “local weather”? I’m not talking about a weather service app that retrieved the weather near you from several or more miles away. This app and the components fused together this Tempest weather station gets real “local weather” on your property for far more accurate up to the minute data and weather information than any outside area source. It’s very small footprint and sleek looks fit right into any home.

Could anyone ask for more?. I am 34 days into my Tempest weather station and the Weatherflow developers have kept every promise. I would like to say I couldn’t ask for more but I haven’t seen the feature that is most important to me come online. The ability to adapt to my temperature conditions rather than copy the local weather forecast has yet to show itself. I live in a valley where my mornings are well below freezing and a half mile away my neighbors never have to protect their plants and animals from damage. I hope to see my system predict my conditions soon.

Tempest Weatherflow. This piece of equipment is mind blowing! It is so easy to install and gives every single piece of weather information imaginary. It will even alert you on your phone or smart watch that rain is falling and shows lightning strikes up to 40kms away! Ideal, if you need to switch off sensitive equipment before the storm arrives! In addition, using the AP can can see weather conditions from other stations all around the world, again, ideal if preparing to travel to another area to check local conditions before travelling. Historical data is easily obtained, and recorded daily from the device. No moving parts, self powered by solar, and linked into the Internet via the Hub that comes with it. Certainly a revolutionary new way to check and record weather. Well Done to Tempest for this device, it is a winner!!!

Wind and rain now not working. We are having extremely strong winds today. And no rain. Since the last update, these winds show up as rain. And the wind screen is blank with flickering graph. Might need to look again at the update.

Great device and app. The app works well and was easy to set up. It would be good to be able to download/print data Apple Watch app would also be great

Not bad, but simplistic. It gives you the information you need, but takes a little figuring out to determine how to read some of it. It is utilitarian, not very sophisticated. I am used to weather stations that display weather data in a cluster of instrument gauges that looks very professional, whereas this is simply a blue and white set of numbers that any high school programmer could create.

Weak graphics. Label your graphs. Purple background becomes tiring.

Wow!. Have just updated to Ver 4. What a brilliant improvement. I used to check the WeatherFlow data and then use the Weather Network to view forecasts. With the new version of Tempest I can view everything I need in one place. Thank you for the best personal weather devices and app available!

Tapping anything displays a white screen. No matter what I tap on, I get a blank white page with the title ‘tap graph for details’

Bruce. Love it. It would even be better if an app was added for Apple TV.

UV forecasts. Great hardware & app. Could you add a UV forecast? Thanks

Missing Dark Mode and some UI changes. Great job with the hardware and great start to the software. First of all, please add dark mode in the app. I have mine on an all day display. It would be nice to take advantage of timed iOS dark mode. Second, you give us the ability to click on parts of the Home Screen in the app but nothing making it obvious what details will be provided… the top where is shows temp, conditions, and wind speed… an obvious button or something to let people know it will provide more data if clicked. Otherwise… great job and these small changes will help streamline the UI for all users… basic or advanced.

Great but crash on older device. It’s a great update but I used to take an old Ipod device to see my weather station. But with the new update, the app doesn’t want to open on my old IPOD 5th generation with IOS 9.35 even if it is supposed to work with IOS 9.

Update knocks it out of the park. Version 5 has added some amazing and much requested features. Just wow! Dark mode, widgets, new UI. Just an amazing update to the app. Thank you so much!

Awesome app!. Does exactly what I expect. Thanks to the team that designed it!

Tempest with My Rachio Controller. My Tempest weather station provides real time weather information for my Rachio arrigation controller ensuring it receives the very best weather data for my home. You can't do better than that.

Suggestion. This is definitely a nice weather station, though the app could use a more modern feel. Please add the new iOS widgets, so users can have their weather data on the home screen.

Tempest system. Wonderful system, a bit pricey BUT my old system was going through a lot of batteries! I like that I can look at other users around the country.

Love the system. Have been waiting for awhile to get a system at home and this one met everything I was looking for. Since install I love that it integrates into other tempest systems and makes mine even more accurate. I find it better than the local system that is based on what is happening at the airport. Highly recommend the system.

First Weather System. This is my very first total weather system. So far doing what’s it’s suppose to do! I’m an avid weather geek and finally bit the bullet and bought this system. Thus far I’m impressed with its operation.

Awesome Weather Station. The Tempest is an amazing station that was super easy to install. It gives very accurate readings and its design will give years of worry-free service. It replaced an accurite station that began to give erratic readings. You won’t regret the purchase.

Version 4 Not An Improvement. I preferred the user interface of the previous version as the default. While I can still see the “Full Screen” interface by going into Settings, scrolling down, and tapping on Full Screen, I don’t like having to do that every time. Can you add the ability to make it the default?

Great but lacking. Its a great weather station for the money but my main frustration is I have to buy a second cheaper wx station because I want a display to see in the morning how cold it is and would simply like to look over at it then pull up an app. Would be 5 stars with that accessory

Really happy with this app. I've got a Tempest station so the app is my primary interface to it. Love the detail and access to my data and that of stations in the area. Forecast data has been very good.

Great app,. This app is great. So many people complaining about the old data points not being there! It is still there, plus a 10 day forecast for your location. To get the old data graph back look at the top right and push the WeatherStation icon. So easy!!!

New owner. Just got my station and was thrilled when a storm blew through right after siting. Would love a radar tab and of course as others have said a map tab in the app so you can easily follow other local stations.

Super easy to setup. Wow! Easiest setup ever! I was up and running in 5 minutes including downloading the app. Placing the sensor head is also super easy compared to the 2 other weather stations I have setup in the last 5 years. With NO moving parts, this system is a true game changer in terms of simplicity. It that eventually translates into good longevity, these guys have a home run on their hands!

Good app for a great product. Very nice to access information from your weather station on your phone. The app works seamlessly with the Tempest weather station - and it can be updated going forward to make it even better. One example would be an indicator for rainfall rate.

Great Solution but. I love the hardware and the app, but the analytics related to data lacks significantly. One specific is rain accumulation. It would be great having the ability to “zoom” and get totals for a week, month year etc. Temp as an example averages for a week, month or maybe custom date ranges. 5 Stars once we get that 👍🏻

Noce. Improvement is noticeable but a map with live radar and incorporation of official weather alerts is sorely lacking. I understand it might be coming; very much looking forward to it. I look forward to the day when this will be my only needed weather reference.

Latest update gets 5 stars. Already really enjoyed the app and weather sensor, but dark mode now allows me to check those overnight wind gusts without scorching my retinas. Thanks for the new appearance option!!

Cumulative rain total for the year. Love the app. One thing that would be great to see is tracking the total rain fall from my station. Maybe I’m missing something in settings.

Awesome!. This is the first WeatherStation I’ve ever purchased and I’m glad I waited until now! It was very easy to set up and installation was a snap. Being able to share this data with others is a plus but I really am looking forward to integrating it into my Crestron system for advanced weather functions.

Love the New Widgets. A recent update added iOS widgets for both my phone and watch. I’ve really enjoyed the addition of these! It’s made it so easy to see the data from my weather station at just a glance. Overall, this is a great product and a great app. So glad I backed the Tempest Kickstarter back in the day!

The Sky and Air are Great technology. The Sky and Air are great and have some of the best Technology but the app definitely needs a lot of work. I think it’s sad to have one of the best weather stations on the market and have a app that looks like was made in the 90s. The hardware side of the weather stations are great and I don’t understand why we have to go to a third-party to get good app.

Easy to set up. This is an amazing weather station. The range that it works from the base station really surprised me. I’m out on a vacation and can see the weather at my station any time I want. I like that it has no moving parts but works great. Good job Tempest designers and engineers.

Tempest station. Love ours Tempest We also have an ancient Davis, so between the two weather stations, we have a good idea what’s going on. Customer service is top notch, too. I highly recommend spending the money to get a good station, and Tempest is great!

Another “You must log in to use the app” App!. You must log in to use the App when there is no reason to, other than the Developer is collecting email addresses!!! I am looking at weather stations as to make a recommendation to a family member and downloaded the app for research. I can’t even see what the app looks like!!! I myself do have Davis Instruments weather station and they require the same with their app. My friends and neighbors can’t see my weather unless they register and give their email address. ☹️ 🤬 😡 How annoying, how immature. Idiots!!

Great App & Product!. Love the WeatherFlow company. It seems as though the forecasts off this app get better and better over time. App works fine and readings are accurate. The product itself is great, too!

Customizable alerts?. Would be awesome if I could set light alerts for just a certain distance from my house. Getting alerted to lightning 20 miles away isn’t always helpful. But a filter to alert only for 5 or 10 miles would be awesome. Also a radar map internal to this app would make it my go to

Would love an Apple Watch app. Agree with what others have said. The station and app are wonderful. All that’s missing is Apple Watch integration with complications. Would much rather see the weather at my home via Tempest than whatever the Weather app shows.

Great app but the UX. The app is stable and shows all comprehensive weather measures. The UX though is really backwards, especially the Excel 1998 like graphs. There is a great potential to improve and make it visually appealing, especially given the fact how much information you can put at once.

Old app version was better. Blue was easier on the eyes than purple. I really miss the old widget. I could get all my advanced data in the widget. Heat index, wind chill and more is now missing. Definitely not an improved update. Disappointed. Update: The advanced data is back in the widget. Thank you.

Great Weather Station. Easy to set up, intuitive to use. Provides infinite data points and much more. Have it set up with home automation / integration and works like a charm. Still trying to “fine tune” IFTTT features / capabilities - overall a great product.

Skeptical At First. Amazingly accurate and easy to use. I have my reservations about the wind meter and how it detected speed and direction. Not having any moving parts is huge! Would highly recommend and very easy to set up.

Tempest is an amazing tool. Tempest is an awesome device and very quick to get set up. The app interface is very clean and easy to use. The only thing it is missing is a widget for newer builds of iOS—I would love to have my Tempest data on my home screen. But even without this, this system is amazing and I am very pleased with it.

Notifications. Having owned a couple of Davis weather stations, I really appreciate the technological advances the Tempest system provides. I’m having a problem with the app however. Notifications are spotty. Sometimes they work and sometimes not. Settings are all correct but many times, I don’t get lightning notifications but when I check, lightning has been detected.

New to Tempest and have some suggestions for the app. Hello. So far loving the hyper local info from my new tempest device. I have an old iPhone hanging on the wall to display the info . Is there a way to show the current temp trending number, like a small arrow showing the temp trending upward or downward ?

Love the Tempest. We had an Accurite station that died after only a year of use. Decided to try the Tempest. Really easy to setup outside as well as connect and get the app. Great to check in what the actual weather is at our house which is 20 miles and higher elevation than my office. Definitely recommend!

Doesn’t load data, upon opening.... The app, when you first open it, to see your own local data...no longer updates. I am forced to re-select my own weather station each time to see any live data. If I don’t, all the data fields just remain BLANK. 👎

Mill Run Farm Weaterh Station. Love the Tempest, easy to setup, highly accurate, and attrative compared to our old one. Very cool to see how many users in the immediate vicinity. Lightining feature worked great the other day, you could track from the other Tempest stations. Hoghly reccommend.

Great station and app. But found the flaw.. Love the idea of this all in one station. However, during our most recent blizzard, this station was reporting wind blown snow hitting the rain sensor as rain. Counted upwards of a foot of “rain” with its haptic sensor while my traditional station with the traditional cup for rain counted nothing. Would be nice to be able to reset or edit that data.

Dark mode!. I like the dark mode option, if only they allowed you to choose the accent color. Blue was nice, this purple seems to be a little much. Allow people to select the color they prefer and then this app will be wonderful. Please listen to users feedback!

Back to 5 stars. After hearing from customer support they determined the device had failed and are sending a new one. The app and the weather station both get 5 stars.

Please make widget for iOS. Just installed the weather station on my roof. Love the app and the product! Would be ever better with a home screen widget for iOS to see basic conditions without opening the app.

Custom Colors and DARK Mode. This app is in serious need of customization capabilities, why can I not adjust colors and especially enable a dark mode? It also should allow both cardinal and degrees for wind direction. If data is aggregated to provide accuracy tell me where that data is coming from specifically.

Simple & Accurate. I read up before I purchased the Tempest weather station. It was easy to set, no moving parts, user friendly app. Looking forward to see if it actually learns and can accurately forecast my local weather.

Love my weather flow. Have had my weather flow weather station for a few days. Setup was a breeze and the app works perfectly. Alerts me as soon as a few raindrops fall. I love that you can check weather conditions of other owners across the nation.

Impressive. It’s rare that I give a 5-star app review, but this one is deserving. A very impressive weather station technology and great app. Update: Changed my rating to 4 stars, as it seems the device does not detect very light rain very well. The signal to noise trade-off for the haptic rain detection is not ideal.

Best smart weather system!. The Tempest weather system has been the best most dependable system I have owned. The lightning detector is a feature I really love. Honestly I would buy this system all over again! I would recommend this system to anyone interested in weather!

Good, almost great. Overall the app works well. Here is what I’d like to see added: 1) be able to favorite/add friends/family tempest stations so you can easily see them in the app 2) one of the most recent updates changed the color scheme…give us control over this. 3) give alerts/push notification when the tempest isn’t working correctly (ie. No data collected). 4) be able to add other accessories into the app 5) have a built in radar.

Love it. I love the tempest weather station. Gives me all the details I need and is as accurate as my Davis weather station which cost twice as much and I am not able to view online as it is an older unit. I highly recommend this station

Simple, Efficient, and Accurate.. The tempest system is incredibly straightforward and simple to use. Installation was a breeze, and it feels nice to contribute to the largest weather forecast network in the world. I’m looking forward for them to develop widgets for MacOS, iOS and iPadOS.

The best!!!. Having tried quite a few “weather stations” with less than satisfactory results, I was totally blown away with total operation of the Tempest unit. The ease of installation, operation and the sensitivity of the station is astounding! Thank you for a superior product. Your team should be proud!

The accuracy I wanted. Easy to purchase, easy shipping, and arrives quickly. Lots more accurate than the weather app on my phone. The data and forecast are tailored to my location.
