Netatmo offers niche appeal for weather Lunatics
*Contains one indoor and one outdoor module
*The Good The Netatmo Weather Station is easy to set up and use, performed well when we tested its accuracy, and features a well-designed app that's bursting with info. IFTTT integration is another nice touch.
*The Bad For casual weather tracking, there isn't much separating Netatmo from the scores of free weather apps out there.
*The Bottom Line This system works well, but the appeal might be too limited to justify the price.
The $180 Netatmo Weather Station wants to take armchair meteorology to a whole new level. Its two modules are capable of monitoring things like temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, and even noise levels both inside and outside of the home.
A Wi-Fi connection means that you'll be able to monitor all of it on your phone, tablet, or computer.
Throw in the full-scale integration with the popular online automation service IFTTT, and the fact that Netatmo was recently included during the announcement of Apple's HomeKit smart home platform, and you're suddenly looking at one of the most well-connected weather trackers available to consumers.
