It looks like Oregon Scientific has some cool weather station models with
USB connectivity, might work well with a FreeBSD system...

wunderground is definitely a great site however at least in my location the
temperature can be off as much as ten degrees, its almost like they are
reading from a station on top of the mountain, and I.m in the valley. Its
an issue of being on the coast I suppose, for example it could be 80
degrees inland but a ten mile drive and your down to 50 degrees.
