After a kickstarter ad for the WeatherFlow Tempest weather monitor kept flashing on my screen, I couldn't get the idea of mounting it on my mailbox out of my head. Fast forward to today, and I've gone and done it. The weather data it puts out for having no moving parts is pretty impressive. Some internet folks on the forums thought mail delivery would result in a false rain report (from vibration), but so far no problems. If I didn't have cameras on it 24/7 I'd be worried about someone stealing it, but at this point I'm pretty sure nobody even notices it's there, since it looks like a post itself.
