(More customer reviews)This is the first complete weather station that offers the s.a.m.e noaa weather radio reports. This feature sounds fine and works once you set it up, but has some design flaws. You can not make the alarm part of the radio any softer although you can turn the alarm and voice off entirely if you wish to. However, they included a volume for the voice. The problem is that even the voice being set to the lowest level in my case is still too loud. The alarm also goes off whether you set it to voice mode or not so you either have to turn it off or keep them both on.
As far as th weather station goes it gives all the features of other weather stations minus the UV light. One other note is that they removed the remote that the previous version had and I am not sure what made them do this as all the buttons are in the back of the base unit so the remote would have made it easier to operate all the functions the weather station has to offer.
It took an hour or so to mount the outdoor instruments and they immeadiatly started communicating with the base unit and all seem accurate enough. I am however still wondering about the built in barometer as I have seen the barometer change too rapidly so I am not sure if this flaw exists in all the base units. Honeywell said that they are shipping another base unit so I will have to see if the same problem exists.
There are some other features like a sensor light that works well and the included simplistic software package for a USB connection to a computer so you can monitor the weather records.
It is still nice to see that the main selling point of this weather station being the weather radio in this case works if you can live with its flaws. Honeywell would have the perfect weather tool if they would redesign some things and fix other things with the weather station.

Honeywell TN924W Weather Information Station, BlackWith a new double-tool design, the Honeywell TE924W All Weather Station with Public Alert boasts an elegant glossy finish that is perfect for modern decors. The Honeywell TE924W is the quickest, most accurate, and most convenient way of keeping track of the weather in and around your home or office, as well as emergency information you may not want to miss.
The TE924W allows you to monitor temperature and humidity, wind speed and direction, and even rainfall in multiple remote locations at the same time, all while providing you with the most accurate timekeeping available. Additionally, the main display is a NOAA weatherband receiver with S.A.M.E. (Specific Area Message Encoding) alert functionality that automatically turns it on during an emergency broadcast. This system comes with a compact main display unit and three different Honeywell remote sensor units. And with an effective transmission range from 100 to up to 328 feet, you can install these remote sensors virtually anywhere in or near the house.
The three Honeywell remote sensors consist of: an anemometer that measures wind speed and direction, a rain gauge that measures rainfall amount, and a thermo-hygrometer for measuring both temperature and humidity. If you need to know information from multiple locations, you can purchase up to four more remote sensors and use them all via the main display unit's seven-channel capability. The TE924W even stores up to 200 weather records without a PC connection, and comes with a built-in USB port and PC software for syncing with your computer. And not only does this system display the temperature, but provides you with a 12- to 24-hour weather forecast with easy-to-interpret graphical icons, such as clouds, rain, sunshine and more.
The TE924W utilizes easy-to-read digits on a bright, blue backlit LCD display that allows you to read its information at a glance day or night with its automatic backlight control. As an added convenience, this system contains a programmable ice warning alarm, which lets you know when a frost is predicted so you can take precautions. Users will also delight in this system's wide outdoor temperature range, which can range from -38 to 158 degrees F when powered by lithium batteries, making it suitable for virtually any application.
More than just a personal weather station, the TE924W includes a built-in clock that can display the current time in 12- or 24-hour format. And this clock really will display the current time, since it receives radio signals from the U.S. Atomic Clock in Fort Collins, Colorado. Not only does this consistently adjust the clock to within one second of official U.S. government, but automatically adjusts the time for Daylight Savings Time as well. What's more, this clock comes with dual alarms that feature a crescendo tone and a programmable snooze function, as well as a user-friendly sunrise and sunset calculator, and a moon phase calendar. As convenient as it is accurate, the display unit sits easily on your desktop and can go wherever you do. The main display is powered by the included AC power adapter for running the automatic backlight control, while the remote sensors run on a total of 10 AA batteries (not included). The TE924W main display unit and all the remote sensors in this system are backed by a manufacturer's one-year warranty.
