AcuRite unveils weather management tool

AcuRite released its My AcuRite weather environment system. This platform allows users to accurately measure local conditions, broadcast, share and analyze data, upload to weather communities and receive notifications of changing conditions.

My AcuRite is built upon a cloud-based platform that delivers AcuRite’s environmental measurement technologies to a consumer’s laptop, tablet or smartphone.
