AcuRite Weather Station from Costco?
Quick question. I saw this weather station at my local Costco store yesterday. I can't identify the model number but it does have USB. Does anyone know if works with Meteobridge?

Itseems to be type 1036, the colored version of type 1035.
The metebridge page http://meteobridge.com/wiki/index.php/Stations only mentions 1035.

I can confirm it works. I have that station and have been using it with my meteobridge for the last few weeks. It does require a USB hub but that's not a bad thing as it lets you plug in a USB drive for backup. I'm using mine to feed a set of Saratoga scripts, upload to Weather Underground and log raw data to my mysql server. I hated the software that came with the AcurRite but now I don't need it.

The one I got from Costo has 02032C as the model printed on the instruction manual.
In the "Station Select" step, with a USB 2.0 hub between my TL-MR3020 and station, the 'Acurite: 1025/1035/1525 (use "USB Mode 3")' has a red mark. So do the rest of the stations. I selected the Acurite anyway. I never see data.
I was able to use the "Push Service" to send periodic emails to myself, but again, no data.
Think I'll try hooking it all up again and unplugging power, removing batteries from the station, then inserting batteries and plugging in.
Any other suggestions?

Well, it looks like my USB Hub was on it's last legs or something. Even though I substituted a different USB Hub last go round, it didn't work that time. I did do the full power down of my station and maybe that helped. But the power light on my first hub quit working, so it's probable dead. Using a D-Link DUB-H7 USB 2.0 Hub now and it's working.meteo_fossils wrote:http://www.acurite.com/pro-color-digita ... 02032.html

I tried both wireless and wired connections to the MB, both are working now.
So yes, the Costo AcuRite 02032C 5-in-1 weather station does indeed work with the MB.
