Monitoring weather data at home is a cool project! I have a Davis station installed on a pole above my roof and it is interesting to see the difference between feelings and measures (esp. wind gust and rain rate).

Anyway, to collect weather data from Davis station, I highly recommend https://www.smartbedded.com/wiki/index.php/Meteostick

It is very simple to use and works really well - it is also supported by WeeWX through an out-of-tree driver, but is easy to setup. It also allows you to keep your console in your living room while you collect data in your basement.

I would love this for my David VP2 station. It looks like it’s not available in the United States but they say it’s resold by ambient weather. Does anyone know of an alternative source? If this is it that’s more than twice the EU price. https://ambientweather.com/amweatherbridgepro.html
Looks like it's the more expensive (and more capable) MeteoBridge from the same company: https://www.meteobridge.com/wiki/index.php/Home not Meteostick.
