For decades, weather information meant receiving numerical data from a centralized source. We believe weather cannot be understood merely through numbers, but needs to be felt through observation. This is why we created BloomSky, to start a community where everyone is a weather reporter, contributing to the birth of a more human experience with weather information.

PRODUCT DETAILS
SKY2 is the sequel to SKY1. After a year of listening to you, the early BloomSky community, we've made it better. We have seen it survive the rough winters in Minnesota to the hottest conditions in Arizona. From the peaks of Himalayas to the dunes of Dubai, our first generation was tested to the extreme. We will continue to push the limit with SKY2, together.
SKY2 NEW UPDATES
Based on valuable feedback from SKY1 users and community, we've tweaked the product for improved reliability and accuracy. Changes:
Bluetooth-enable set up option for easier and faster install.
Relocated the UV sensor to STORM to optimize reading accuracy.
SKY1 is only equipped with WiFi-enabled set up option. Now you have two options for initial set up on SKY2. The data will still be transmitted through WiFi network.
We have relocated the UV to STORM device for improved sensor placement. The UV sensor was placed on an adjustable cover on SKY1 which can be skewed when tilted. STORM will have a natural upright placement which makes more sense for UV exposure.
STORM is our newest and first accessory. It works with your SKY1 or SKY2 device in concert to bring you a complete weather data reporting system. It uses a tipping bucket to measure rainfall accurately, which can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement. It is also equipped with bird spike to prevent landing and roosting.
