    Quick & easy weather check in the morning before kids leave for school. Far better than having to turn on the TV to get the latest weather report.

          Comments about Family Wireless Weather Station:

          I bought this as a gift. When another family member admired it so much, I promptly ordered another one to give to her. I will probably order a third one eventually to keep myself.

          No problem on installation. I dropped the remote sensor 8 ft high, still working.
          Weather forecast is reliable if you are not highly demanding.
          Still could get signal in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
