That’s pretty nifty. I wish Rachio supported wunderground’s PWS network natively but I’m guessing there is a cost for that API and it’s prohibitive. Although I can’t help but notice @franz’s comment here …
Ultimately I think I want to run my own PWS station. If I have to run scripts to migrate data from wunderground over anyway, well I’d rather be uploading my own info! I just don’t have the best location for a unit with a anemometer. I guess for a Rachio I really care about temp, humidity and especially precipitation. Annoyingly one of my neighbors directly behind our property has a Davis Vantage up on his deck but that data doesn’t seem to go anywhere.
However until that day, I’m 13 miles from Dulles Airport which does chart precipitation accurately (it should since the LWX NWS office is right next to it!). I know there are people far further away from a local weather station.
