Tempest Weather Station

Yes, the Tempest Hub requires a 2.4GHz WiFi network. Connecting via WiFi will enable continuous uploading of weather data and allow anytime data access from anywhere.

Improvements are made to the local forecast as the machine learning (AI) ingests observations from your weather station and other observations in your area. We pay a great deal of attention to the quality of the observations coming from your Tempest and our Continuous Learning AI seeks to improve the quality of your unique observations. You will notice advantages in accuracy over other forecasts starting about ~60 days from the time of installation. You may notice additional improvements going forward as we learn more about your local weather.

Once your system is set up, you can view data and forecasts in the Tempest Weather App, or from any browser at tempestwx.com. Log in to the website using the same credentials you used to create your Tempest account or view the station data as a guest user. Tempest does not come with a dedicated display, but there are many other options to view your data. LEARN MORE

Most weather apps and weather reports from your evening news are based on public domain data - primarily from weather stations installed long ago at regional airports. Having a reliable weather station at your home gives you the benefit of knowing the exact conditions outside, (not at the nearest airport). Tempest also provides hyper-local forecast info, customized to your location and can even help you save money on heating & air conditioning by allowing your smart home tech to make automated decisions based on real-time weather data.
