Discovery Channel FX6000 Wireless Weather Station with Wind Chill

As not only a gadget geek but a weather buff too, I have to say that this gadget is super cool. I would give it a two thumbs up rating. The Discovery Channel FX6000 Wireless Weather Station with Wind Chill not only gives the outdoor temperature but the wind chill, overall humidity, wind speed and direction, arrow indicators that represent future temperatures for the day, and the moon phases.

I just think this is cool. You don't have to be held hostage in front of the television in order to find out the weather report and what will happen today. You don't even have to call the local weather number or turn on your computer. Just walk to your indicator and get general information about the weather.

Guys will love it because they can tune into reruns of Home Improvement rather than enduring the local news about the newest mall opening. Or if they are so inclined can tune into CNN or MSNBC, or Fox News rather than enduring the local news just for a 3 minute blurb that isn't always the most accurate. And, it costs about what a good pair of shoes would run...hence the excuse to buy a new pair of shoes. But, I digress. The point is that this is a cool gadget that is actually quite useful and even practical. We, as women, can actually understand the importance of knowing what's going on weather wise and our husbands will think they have really cool wives who feed their gadget cravings.
