La Crosse Technology WS-1516U-IT is a professional weather station that provides accurate and real-time weather data, including temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, rainfall, and barometric pressure. With its wireless transmission technology, the weather station can receive data from outdoor sensors located up to 32 feet away. The WS-1516U-IT features a detachable base stand for easy placement, and its large LCD display clearly shows all weather information, including historical data and weather forecast.
