Indoor DisplayThe display features built-in sensors for measuring temperature and humidity at its location. Additionally, this weather station features enhanced tracking of historical rainfall data. Rain accumulation data is displayed for the current day, yesterday, or week. See conditions updated in seconds for lightning, wind, temperature, humidity, and rainfall. |
Lightning DetectorDetect lightning strikes within 25 miles (40 kilometers) with continuous updates every 24 seconds during normal conditions and 8 seconds once lightning is detected. Use the sensor's integrated hanger for easy setup or hang it by a string in a suitable location, like a well-covered tree branch. |
Easy-to-Install Outdoor DeviceFor quick setup, fasten the included mounting base to a post or pole using the four long screws included in the hardware bag. Choose an open location with no obstructions above or around the sensor for the most accurate measurements. |

Self-Calibrating for Your LocationOur weather stations use a unique algorithm to analyze changes in pressure over time (called Learning Mode) to determine your altitude. After 14 days, the self-calibrated pressure is tuned in to your location, and the unit is ready for superior weather prediction. |
Superior, Hyperlocal Weather ForecastingAcuRite’s patented Self-Calibrating Forecasting provides your personal forecast of weather conditions 12 hours in advance by collecting data from the sensor in your backyard. It generates a forecast with pinpoint accuracy — personalized for your exact location. |
Rainfall TrackingAcuRite professional weather stations feature enhanced tracking of historical rainfall data. Rain accumulation data is recorded for today, over all-time, by year, by month, and by rainfall event. |
Barometric PressureSubtle variations in barometric pressure greatly affect the weather. This weather center displays the current pressure with an arrow icon to indicate the direction the pressure is trending (falling, steady, or rising). |

Product Description
Monitoring conditions indoor and outdoor has never been more accessible with the AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Weather Station. The professional weather station tracks a comprehensive list of weather data, including lightning strikes within 25 miles, temperature (degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius), humidity (percent RH), Wind Speed (mph, kmh or knots), wind direction (with a 16-point wind rose), barometric pressure, heat index, wind chill, dew point, daily and all-time high and low records, as well as the time and date (month/day). The weather ticker on display streams real-time information and alerts for weather conditions. The home weather station's color display features auto-dimming brightness, has a convenient tabletop stand, and can be mounted to any wall. It records historical data, including current, weekly, monthly, and yearly lightning strike counts (miles or kilometers), average wind Speed (at 1, 2, 5, 10, and 15-minute intervals) as well as historical rainfall records (inches or millimeters) for the previous 48 hours, seven days, month, and year. A Weather Center to Monitor Accurate Weather Conditions, Anywhere: This personal weather station allows you to monitor weather conditions in the home, garden, RV park, or any precise location. Enjoy the benefits of an anemometer, rain gauge, wind vane, hygrometer, and thermometer all in one wireless device. Many customers enjoy utilizing this home weather station as a wireless forecast station due to its reliable forecasting technology. Using the built-in weather barometer, the weather station takes 4,000 readings at 12-minute increments to calculate a running average and compute the barometric pressure for your exact location. The pressure accuracy of AcuRite self-calibrating forecasters increases with each new reading over a period of time (Learning Mode). After 14 days, the self-calibrated pressure is reasonably accurate (although the algorithm continues to run; 4,000 readings = 33.33 days) and the weather forecaster is ready for superior weather prediction. The AcuRite 5-in-1 professional weather station with color display and a lightning detector is compatible with up to 2 additional indoor/outdoor sensors (models: 06002, 06044; sold separately) to monitor different locations..

1) The display is nice, and easy to read. The ticker at the bottom is pretty cool.
2) Setup is fairly simple. Only problem comes when you:
3) Install the add-on sensors. You're supposed to be able to add three additional sensors to this unit. Here's what they don't tell you/tell you incorrectly:
a) In this package, the LIGHTNING sensor counts as one of the sensors. It will show up as temp sensor A, B or C, depending upon how you program it via the switch
b) The instructions say you need to match the ABC selector switch on the additional sensors to match the ABC selector on the display/head end unit or they will not sync. This is not true. Your additional sensors (like the 06002M) need to be set as A, B or C and they will then sync up and show as sensor A, B and C...If you set them all the same, only one (the first one, and most likely your lightning/temp/humidity sensor) will sync and the others won't. Perhaps this is in the manual, but I didn't see it.
4) One of the reasons I purchased the extra sensors was to put a temp sensor in our cheese fridge - we make goat cheese, and it needs to be at a certain temp/humidity during the curing process. You CANNOT, AFAIK, put an alarm on one of these additional sensors.
Overall, I'm very pleased with this unit, albeit I've only had it running a couple of days. I may come back and edit this review in a few months to update.
The first one: After about 9 or 10 months, it stopped reporting data.
The second one: After about 8-9 months, it stopped reporting wind information.
The third one: After 10-11 months, it stopped reporting all data.
The display unit: Everything about it is horrible. It's less responsive than a hotel remote control. Navigating the 'buttons' is difficult at best. It's a touch screen that responds poorly. The interface is horrible and difficult to wade through. There are no menus like you would hope to see. It makes you wade through every item to get to any one of them. One of my biggest pet peeves was that it didn't always display the dew point. Below a certain temperature, it displayed the wind chill. Above a certain temperature, it displayed the heat index. Dammit, I always want to see the dew point regardless of what the ambient temperature is. It was also difficult to read if you weren't staring directly at it. If you were off to the side by any amount, it was invisible. If it was even a little bit above or below you, it was invisible.
The sensor unit: It is comprised of about $3.59 of plastic, a handful of small metal pieces and a couple small printed circuit boards. It weighs about two pounds and you wonder how it doesn't blow away. The wind speed sensor vanes on mine actually MELTED and warped during a typical Texas summer. The main housing has many vent holes in it that tend to double as spider access holes. So I had to take the main cover off once a year to clear out all the spider webs because the webs would foul the rain gauge and prevent the cup from emptying. They would also make webs/nests in other places including on the circuit boards. On one of them, the anemometer seized up. Fortunately, I still had the previous unit(s) and was able to yank the anemometer off one of the dead ones and swap out the bad anemometer on the 'working' unit. Lastly, it seems like the solar-powered fan was an afterthought. It didn't work well and the spiders always clogged it with their webs when it wasn't spinning.
WiFi: You can't simply throw it onto your WiFi network. You MUST have the intermediate Acurite hub/switch.
Overall: I found it difficult, tedious, tiresome and annoying, in addition to the low quality components that never lasted very long.
I am now the proud owner of an Ambient Weather WS-2000.
