May I ask, do any of you use a weather station? I am looking for recommendations and ones to avoid.

Ok #homeassisant pros... I have a dumb #sprinkler. I have only 5 zones, 3 in use. I want a smart one with no cloud needed, but I also don't want to have to build my own with relays, etc. I have no experience with a sprinkler controller newer than 2008, so I am sure advances have been made. I do want to eventually have my own #WeatherStations (a topic for another time) so if the station could have automation possibilities, that would be great. ZWave or WiFi but if I have to get zigbee I can.

@sunguramy So, it looks to me that the two options that do not require a lot of technology futzing are:
1. Vantage Vue Weather Station with Weatherlink Console (6242M) $695 (out of your budget)
or
2. Ambient Weather WS-2902 $189.99

https://support.ambientweather.com/hc/en-us/articles/19751591049101-How-To-Connect-Your-Weather-Station-Sensors-And-AmbientWeather-Net-To-CWOPI have not used the Ambient Weather stations, myself, but I have seen some people like them. (I have a AcuRite stations I have wired up to Raspberry Pi, which is well beyond your "not a techy person" parameters)
