    The Weather Banner

    The weather banner is a little thing I am playing with. I got a personal weather station last week and the data it shows are the current conditions at my little piece of Texas. It uploads to Weather Underground website and if you click on it, it takes you to my PWS page.

    Several years ago, you introduced me to the Keurig coffee maker and I have been going broke buying K-cups ever since... not to mention having gone through four Keurig coffee machines as well.

    I have always had a hankering for a personal weather station. Would you mind sharing the make, model and source of yours?

    AcuRite 01085RM Color Display (Dark Theme), 5-in-1 Weather Station, & 2-Sensor Weather Environment System with My AcuRite Remote Monitoring App

    And to help with the Keurig K-Cups, we order from Angelino's. You'll get them in about three days. We get the 192 pack and get an assortment of what we like. I suggest first getting one of their sample packs for $5.95 and seeing what you like.

    Being German, you'll probably like the Dark roast or the French roast.

    You can also get an insert and use regular coffee from any store. I use Folgers Classic roast. 2 cups a day, no more or no less.

    And by 10AM, after his two cups of coffee, he opens another new liter of Ronrico 151 Rum.
    Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

    Nope, I'm there by 6am. Not including what I put in the coffee.

    Is this what is trying to load on my end, as a flash object?
    I don't mind being called far right.
    I have been right so far.

    I like it... Now I don't have to go look at my old thermometer on the porch... Just toss the dog out back to conduct her morning business and watch the news...

    Thanks Rick.

    It works very well, surprisingly on the government machine. I have an old weather station I got years ago from Sharper image. Pretty simple. I looked at yours on amazon and am wondering where a good spot to mount that anomoneter(sp) contraption would be. Looks pretty cool though. Sam's often has sales on Folgers Dark Roast and they cost 29 cents a cup for their box of 84. That is about the best I can find.
