What's the weather like where you are?

You will be able to check the weather at your RV from home. They are fun. I have three friends that have the same Ambient Weather station that I have. Each had to have a station after seeing mine in operation. My display sits here on my office desk and it is a daily source of info. As silly as it may seem, I would buy a replacement for my station if mine were to quit. I will not be without.
 
Not only do you get hyper-local weather from it, but it will become even more precise over time as its machine learning builds data from other weather stations in the network. Tempest says it takes about 60 days for it to become shockingly precise: and the data from my (or your) station goes to make everyone else's more accurate.
 
It was overcast all day today and the temps just barely topped fifty. It was windy again today which made it no fun to be outside. There is a very slight chance of rain for tonight. Rain is favorable tomorrow and Friday. We need the moisture so I hope for once they have the forecast correct.
 
It came another rain show as I sat in the parking lot of the grocery store and watched. It didn't last long but rained really hard. When I returned home I found that my total rainfall for the day had doubled. .54" so far and there is a chance for more.
 
Rainy today - cleared up long enough for me to take the Shih Tzu money pit for a 1/3 mile walk and wear her out. I have my Tempest weather station set up and I'm getting data... it's just sitting on our deck right now because the 1" pole mount arrived with missing hardware and they're sending me a new one.

Snow today in Michigan!
Albeit not much sticking to the ground right now, and temperatures getting up to 38 degrees...
At least for the rest of the week it'll be back up into the 60s, lol....

It is supposed to be a bit cooler today and be cooler for the next ten days. The wind has changed to the North as a front passed through early this morning. It was a light show and plenty noisy but brought no moisture. So much for the mid to high seventy temps I've enjoyed this week.
 
At around 4am my weather radio went off with a severe thunderstorm warning. It was real loud with a lot of rain. The weather radio mentioned hail, but we didn't get any hail. It was obviously a cold front coming through because it cooled off real quick.

We had a pretty mild winter and an early spring. My wife's bulbs are already up and starting to blossom.

I finally got my Tempest weather station mounted! After determining that there was no way we were going to install it at the very top of the roof (not with a 45-degree angle and no traction), my Plan B was to remove the old satellite dish we no longer use (we got tired of paying for 200 channels of nothing and now use a couple of streaming services) and put it there. It's still in the clear and has an unobstructed path from the southwest, which is where most of our weather comes from.

We are doing the spring weather yoyo here. Today we on the high side after a cool and even cold last few days. Today it got into the upper seventies with lots of beautiful sunshine. I was out in the element most of the afternoon. First I was mowing some lawns and then I was riding my bike. It was a great day to enjoy the outside.
 
Got below freezing last night. I was hoping my propane wouldn't run out. Luckily it didn't. I filled the propane tank up today at Tractor Supply, It was almost empty. Warmed up to day and will be in the 70s tomorrow.
 
It was cold out yesterday and the wind was gusting from the North adding to the misery. Today is stating out much the same. It was 33° when I awoke and it's not 36° with 20mph gusts from the East.
It's a great day to watch the NCAA tournament.
 
Yesterday it rained. It was a much needed rain and I received 1.31" at my station. It is cooler today and windy! Currently 46° with North winds 11mph with guest in the high 20s.
