Weather technology company, BloomSky, released its next generation wireless camera weather station featuring the SKY2 and the accessory STORM. The complete ecosystem is designed as a solution to the problem of inaccurate weather forecasts— it creates a next generation, crowd-sourcing community that shares accurate, hyper-local weather information and images from places all over the world.

Captures pictures of the sky every 5 minutes, creating a time-lapse video at the end of the day.

Share and view real-time images and hyperlocal data no matter where you are.

The next-gen SKY2—a 5-in-1 weather camera that accurately measures temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and precipitation—was enhanced with Bluetooth BLE for easier setup, but retained most of the core competencies of the original SKY1:

• Measures temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, and precipitation using reliable sensors.

• Captures pictures of the sky every 5 minutes, creating a time-lapse video at the end of the day

• Transmits data seamlessly through a Wi-Fi router and can control variety of smart home hardware and applications.

• With an aerodynamic design, it adapts to the harshest weather conditions, including gusts, downpours, dust and UV radiation.

• Provides constant data collection with the solar panel option.

BloomSky also produces the STORM, a high-precision, 4-in-1 wireless weather device that measures rainfall, wind speed, wind direction and UV exposure. Its wireless radio frequency ensures consistent and reliable transmission with better range. The STORM was designed to work with either the SKY2 or SKY1 and is app-enabled (iOS or Android).
