The Arduino weather clock doesn’t tell time…only weather!

The Arduino weather clock is the coolest clock contraption with the highest wow-quotient! It looks vintage but has the backing of the newest technology that marks it different from regular time-telling devices (this doesn’t really tell time anyways!). The Arduino weather clock can actually show you what the weather is like outside. The clock is made by mastermind Sean Carney, who used an old clock after unraveling it from its mechanism. He swapped it with a mechanism controlled by an Arduino chipset, which confirms the weather on the Environment Canada website.

The Arduino checks up on the website every 15 minutes and updates the hands of the clock accordingly so you always know for sure what exactly the condition is before you step outside.
