Hello! I'm eyeballing an Ecowitt weather station and would like your suggestions as to what to do with it. Are there automations you do with it? Just displaying a weather dashboard? Mostly using it for the inside temp/humidity sensors?

Please help me justify buying it to myself!

I can see in the app that there’s a weather station nearby. Does this mean I can get its data into HA?

Select the nearby station then click “+Save Station”, after that the data from the station should show.
