Cumulus is free software for retrieving, storing and displaying data from an electronic Automatic Weather Station (AWS).
Cumulus was born in 2003, when Steve Loft decided none of the weather software available suited his needs, so he wrote something that did do what he wanted.
It offers a lot of features, here, in case you are wondering about trying this software, are the key ones:
* Support for data loggers (no 24/7 running needed)
* Display of additional sensors
* Support for WMR-100 and WMR-200
* Direct support for Fine Offset stations (no need for EasyWeather)
* Support for LaCrosse stations (WS2300 etc)
* Support for Davis WMII
* [[Cumulus Screenshots|Cumulus screens]] for viewing data and configuration
* Web pages
* Data stored in simple text files
* Supports [[Meteorological day]]
