Abstract
Weather is the state of the atmosphere and is a very essential part of human life. An important thing like living in a place or scientific experiments depends on weather of that particular area or state or room. For these, people need atmospheric measurements of temperature, humidity, pressure etc. and this information is providing by weather stations. This paper describes the approach to set up a weather station based on Arduino. The main attributes of this weather station is to measure the surrounding atmospheric readings of weather. These readings will be collected by some sensors which are temperature and humidity sensor (THD), barometric pressure sensor. A wifi module is also used in this weather station to maintain a connection to the internet to get more informations like sunrise, sunset, rainfall and wind speed. All these readings will be displayed on a LCD display and every steps of this station is directed by an arduino mega microcontroller. A matrix keypad is used in here to help the users to view the readings of current weather update, predictions of today and tomorrow easily. Also this weather station is powered by solar panel.
