Hi everyone, I have a Bresser 6-1 and want to upgrade. I have £200-250 to spend. Any recommendations please? Would like it to have dew points etc and can upload wireless to the internet. May go a bit more for the right WS.

Thank you in advance

Greetings and apologies for slow replies as I don't often look at this website.

I would for this sort of money definitely recommend the latest generation of FineOffset weather stations. The home brand for FO is now Ecowitt and you can order direct from them paying the USD amount via Paypal and they will ship to the UK, though you may get a customs charge, The favourite main station is the HP2551 and its various clones (rebranded)

You used to be able to buy Froggit stations from Germany until Brexit got in the way, now the only option is a Watson station from NevadaRadio based in Portsmouth, UK. Personally I have bought all my kit direct from Ecowitt in Shenzen. You may have to wait a few weeks for shipping but at least you are getting it direct from the manufacturer.

There are some excellent forums with help and information at WXForum if you are interested in this type.

I did post a review on this forum about the HP2550 when I first bought it which might also guide you.

    Dubai Floods: Another Warning Sign for Desert Regions?

    The flooding in the Middle East desert city of Dubai earlier in the week followed record-breaking rainfall. It doesn't rain very often here like other desert areas, but like the deadly floods in Libya last year showed, these rain events are likely becoming more extreme due to global warming.
