Pam and Nick--

acu-Rite sells the usual rain gauge that tells an indoor unit how much it has rained outside. They also sell a gizmo that connects to your wifi router that also can pick up this info. Then there is an app or website that allows you to see this info.

The router gizmo also picks up any acu-rite temperature and humidity sensors that you have insde the house and uploads those data. So, if you often leave your house unoccupied, the temperature data will prove whether and how often the air coditioner kicks on. I can watch my temp go up to 81, then watch as the a/c takes it down to 79, then back up, when I am out of town.
