In this project we’ll show you how to make a WiFi enabled, portable Weather Station using an ESP8266. LINKS BELOW! The software, written by Daniel Eichhorn, uses the Wunderground API to pull weather data. It shows the date, time, current weather conditions, 4-day forecast and even moon phases.

The user interface features lovely typography and icons that makes really a clean layout. The 2.4” TFT Feather Wing combined with the Adafruit Feather HUZZAH ESP8266 make assembling this project incredibly easy. Full Tutorial, Files and Code: https://learn.adafruit.com/wifi-weath...
