LA CROSSE, Wis., March 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- La Crosse Technology, a world leader in time and weather instruments, is excited to introduce a new, fresh feature to their line of personal weather stations—connectivity, at this year's International Home and Housewares Show in Chicago. By integrating Wi-Fi into their personal weather stations, consumers can view their own backyard weather through the La Crosse View® App. When connected, the station streams additional weather data provided by the National Weather Service (NWS) featuring daily forecasts, rainfall, wind data and severe weather alerts including thunderstorms, tornados, and prevailing winds.

Allan McCormick president and CEO of La Crosse Technology® said: "As the world becomes a smaller place and users demand a more connected environment, we knew it was time to take our weather stations to the next level." According to Santiago Perdomo, product development manager "We decided to give our users the ability to see all of their home and backyard information anytime, and anywhere. Through research and testing, we found our users' needs and expectations to create an intuitive experience with endless possibilities a necessary goal of this project. As such, this system can be customized to any user's needs to provide a feeling of comfort and reduce stress while they are away from home."
