TFA Gaia Wireless Weather Forecaster

The Gaia wireless weather station gives weather prediction for the keen weather watcher. It has a number of useful features that make it a very popular choice.

It features a barometric graph at the bottom which will build up a history of how the air pressure is changing. By being able to see how quickly the air pressure is fluctuating you will soon discover that you are able to predict more accurately when the weather is going to change. The air pressure is also shown as a figure just above the graph. Another great little feature of this weather station is that it also displays two weather graphics next to each other - this indicates how the weather is changing using animated arrows pointing from what the weather is like to what the weather is likely to be.

The weather station also shows you the current temperature and humidity levels for indoor and outdoor via its wireless sensor. You place this sensor outside and preferably on a north facing wall or fence (as this will mean it's not in direct sun). The sensor will display the current temperature and humidity, which is really handy if you're in the garden and would like to know what the temperature is. It also transmits this information back to the weather station where you can also read the outside temperature and humidity. The weather station will keep a track of the minimum & maximum temperature and humidity levels reached that day. It also keeps a record of the highest air pressure and dew point for those with a real interest in weather conditions.

Not seen on many weather stations of this specification is the ability to set audible alarms for certain weather conditions. So for example, you can set an alarm if the temperature drops below a certain point, ideal for a gardener who has a greenhouse and would like a frost alarm - the station can warn you when the temperature has fallen bellow a desirable level. There is also a storm alarm that can be set for impending bad weather. 

To finish, this weather station also has a radio controlled clock which picks up a time signal from an atomic clock that broadcasts across the UK and Europe. The atomic clock is accurate to 1 second every million years and this weather station will automatically sync itself to the correct time. It will even automatically move the clock forward and backwards when the clocks change in Spring and Autumn. There is also an alarm with snooze function, and a handy date display. This is all visible at night with the units handy backlight.
