Abstract

A weather station (100) for indicating weather conditions, comprises a casing (110) having a screen (120) and an internal electronic operating circuit (90). The operating circuit (90) includes at least one sensor (70) for sensing an atmospheric parameter and a microprocessor (80) for ascertaining a weather condition based on the sensed atmospheric parameter and indicating the weather condition on the screen (120). The operating circuit (90) includes a memory (60) which stores several sets of images, each set representing a corresponding variation of the weather condition, for selection by the microprocessor (80) to indicate the weather condition in the variation as ascertained in an animated representation.
