Franzis Maker Kit Wetter Station

Product details

Weather is a phenomenon with which we all come into contact. How we dress usually depends on the weather. And even if we don't go outside, we cannot escape the weather, because it also influences our indoor
climate.

Understanding the weather and analyzing it with apps

Day after day, the weather has an impact on our living habits and influences our leisure activities. The influence is so great that we inform ourselves in advance about the weather for the next days. But the weather forecast is a tough one.
Although meteorology - the science that deals with our climate - is constantly evolving and a lot of computing power is available for computer simulations nowadays, a certain amount of uncertainty remains. Since we have all been disappointed by the weather service or our weatherman from the news, it is now time to take matters into our own hands. We analyse our weather ourselves.
