# Balcony Weather Station
A DIY weather station on my balcony that is hooked up to [Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io/).
The code is [CircuitPython](https://circuitpython.org/). It follows many of the patterns I learned in creating an [aquarium controller](https://git.sr.ht/~travisshears/sewa-reef-controller).
## Capabilities
Right now the station is fairly limited measuring only temperature, humidity,
and atmospheric pressure. I have plans to expand the project to also measure
noise levels, and wind.
## Hardware
Sensors:
- BME280
MCs:
- Raspberry Pi Pico
- Adafruit Airlift
