Hal<\/a> created a neat project by taking parts of my Wifi Radio project and repurposing them to do something completely different.\u00a0 His Standalone Weather Station<\/a> changes the color of an LED based on the weather forecast for tomorrow.\u00a0 If temperatures are trending warmer, the color changes towards red. Colder – blue.<\/p>\n

His project is very well documented and includes code for both the ATmega168-based circuit that drives the LED using PWM and the shell script on the router that communicates with Weather Underground<\/a> to get the forecast.<\/p>\n

Nice work, Hal!<\/p>\n
