It is currently raining here today, I hope it will stop tomorrow since I still have to go to my shop.

We're rejoicing here in SoCal as the rain continues doing its thing!
I saw water-drops on a kitchen window this morning--and wondered why my helper would've sprayed the window.
Then it dawned on me: those were raindrops!

I had a weather station, but it was initially damaged by a hailstorm and finally taken out by a pretty strong N'or Easter a few years ago. I've often thought about getting another one. Yours looks interesting @olbriar. I see there is also a spot on the weather underground for an associated webcam. Would that work with security cameras?
@lunatic59 Sounds like Boston weather known for destroying techy stuff if you leave it out in the open. Kinda makes the rain gauge redundant.
Springy. Loved the Super Moon in the clouds last night.

I honestly don't know about the camera. Thinking out loud, the station connects WiFi for data transfer. If the security cameras are also on your network (duh) there may be means to marry them together. As designed, a camera is attached to the station and then transfers all data to your in house display and to Wunderground if you care to make your station public. A bit of google would likely have your answer.
My yard is a typical old school block housing tract and a camera would prove pretty boring. None of my friends have installed a camera either for that matter. It was never a consideration here so I've done zero R&D. If I had a security system in place, and if there was a way to combine multiple exterior cameras to my station, I'd be all over it.
Is Edmund Scientific still a thing?
That's the one I had in the 1960s.

Yeah, but they are just Scientifics now ... I guess Edmund has left the building.
I have cameras pointed at my front door/porch, driveway and back door, just so I can see what the thieves are taking, so i can stop and pick up the replacement on my way home.
But I do have a couple of older low res cameras that I could point at my yard. If the dog crap is wet, then it's raining (or another dog just peed on it).
Are any of your cameras pointed up @lunatic59?

i love this weather here in LA. it is wet and rainy. right now there really is no breeze....so there is no wind chill. it is the perfect weather to smoke a nice, but cheap cigar and drink my favorite bourbon, Bib and Tucker. it is just super nice to only listen to the rain and tune out all the noise about the pandemic....right now i'm very relaxed.
It's snowing in Boston. Feels like 35° F though.

I'm experiencing the see saw of spring here as well. Temps neared 80° yesterday and temps right at freezing this morning.
man we have not had weather like this in LA for a while. it is storm system after storm system. been like this all week. it should continue thru the weekend. i love the rain. i just hate driving in it.
Just remember, we need every precious drop!
Turning a desert into a megalopolis is nice and everything, and as I've said a million times, I'll never again leave LA, but damn!, it sure does need water.

Snowed here for the first time in a huge spell, currently just chilling at 37 degrees.
I don't think the snow is gonna reach my city but some rain is forecasted for when I go to work tonight.
