5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Weather Girl Station, September 24, 2008

By	Jim - See all my reviews

I wanted something different for my office and this weather girl weather station was the perfect fit. She doesn't smile but keeps me on time and I always know the temperature and humidity at a glance.

I am planning on buying another one for my brother's birthday as he's heard me talk about her and would appreciate as I have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Weather Girl is a welcomed addition to my home, December 31, 2008

By	M Matthews (San Antonio, TX United States) - See all my reviews

My husband gave me this wireless temperature station as a Christmas gift. I love The Weather Girl! My teenage and adult sons got a chuckle out of it. Her unashamed attitude makes me smile. She is willing to keep her midriff bear until the temperature drops below 50F. That's what I call ATTITUDE!

Aside from the fun of a beautiful woman giving fashion advice based on the outdoor temperature, the display is well thought out. The outdoor temperature is measured to the tenth of a degree and is the top number on the display. The indoor relative humidity expressed as a percentage and the indoor temperature measured to a tenth of a degree are clustered together in the middle of the display. The time and date are on the bottom. I love the atomic clock feature. The display is very clear and crisp. It can be viewed from various angles and can be read from a fair distance with decent eyesight.

I'm very happy with this Christmas gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars Waiting for the Warm..., April 13, 2009

By	J. Williamson "JargonTalk" (Bucks County, PA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

It's April, and all of 36 °F outside this morning, according to my La Crosse Technology Wireless Temperature Station, known by some as the "Weather Girl" thermometer, though the forecast is for temperatures going to 57° by mid-afternoon. This unique digital thermometer comes with a AA-battery powered remote sensor and "dress-for-weather" icons that change with the outdoor temperature.

Had some mild reservations about this product due to reviews and comments that I had read, but when it showed up on a deal here, I grabbed it, mostly due to excellent service had with the previously purchased La Crosse Technology WS-9121U-IT-CBP Wireless Thermometer/Clock with Remote Outdoor Temperature Sensor, which I had reviewed here last year. The higher that the temperature goes, the more that she takes off, and you can see all of the icons themselves if you look at the customer image that I posted here. As a parent of a young teen, my reservations had to do with the icons and how revealing they might be, but they don't show anything more than a rather demure woman in a bikini when the temperature goes above 79 °F (26 °C), Kids see far more in print media and television ads today, so it's really a moot point.

It's easy to set up, if you take about five minutes to read the included directions. It has an atomic clock (one that uses an atomic resonance frequency standard as its timekeeping element), so that you don't have to worry about setting it after its original set-up. The remote sensor is weather resistant and quite accurate, if you remember to place it in a shaded outdoor area. Best of all, it integrates with my previously-mentioned La Crosse WS-9121U-IT-CBP Wireless Thermometer/Clock.

Last Friday, the remote sensor told me that the temperature was 79 degrees, but that was due to my leaving the wireless sensor out in the direct sun on purpose, as I had yet to see what the Weather Girl would do when it got warm... and now I know.

So I'm waiting for the warm weather to really begin...

Highly recommended, for those with a sense of humor.
