AcuRite Iris 5-in-1 Weather Station with HD Display, Lightning Detection & Barometer (01024M)

Hyperlocal weather in your hands

The AcuRite Iris 5-in-1 Weather Station brings precise, hyperlocal data to your home. The included outdoor wireless sensors feed a bright, high-definition display with real-time readings for temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, rainfall, and barometric pressure. Built to endure the elements, this system emphasizes reliability and ease of setup, featuring a self-draining rain gauge and rugged, weatherproof housing.

The illuminated display auto-dims for comfortable viewing at night and offers a sleep mode to reduce brightness when you don’t need a full dashboard. The clock automatically updates for daylight saving time and includes an integrated alarm to help keep your daily routine on track while staying informed about the weather ahead.
