Ask Your Weather Station Anything With AI

Your AI assistant can now answer from your own weather station. Connect Station Signals to Claude and ask, "What's the temperature in my yard?" It reads your Ambient Weather station, not a city forecast. It can tell you how cold your yard got last night, when the rain started on Tuesday, whether today set a record, and whether tonight will freeze. We're letting homes in a few at a time, so the first step is the wait list.

Why this matters

Your station measures your yard every few minutes. It knows things no forecast does. It knows the low at 5 AM on your patio, the gust that hit your fence, and the half inch of rain that missed the town next door.

Until now, getting at that meant opening an app, finding the right tile and reading a chart. Most of us never did. We asked our phones instead, and our phones answered for the airport.

That's the gap Station Signals closes. Your assistant asks your station. You get your yard's answer, in plain words, in the chat you already use.

What it sounds like

Here's what my station said about one day in Sun City West, Arizona, on November 4, 2026:

High 79° at 2:45 PM. Low 52° at 7:00 AM. No rain. 3 dry days in a row. Top gust 9 mph at 12:55 PM. The forecast said 77°. Your yard hit 79°. Coldest night since this station started.

Nobody typed that. The station measured the day. Station Signals turned it into sentences. Claude read them back when I asked, "How was yesterday in my yard?"

And here's the same station right now:

What you can ask

Ask the way you'd ask a neighbor. Here's what works today.

Right now. "What's the temperature in my yard?" "How windy is it?" "What's the pool temperature?" "What's the air quality?" Your assistant reads the station's latest reading, usually less than five minutes old.

Tonight and this week. "Will it freeze in my yard tonight?" "Will it rain on Saturday?" This is the National Weather Service forecast for your station's exact spot. Station Signals also tracks how your yard runs against that forecast. If your patio runs 3 degrees colder than forecast on clear nights, your assistant can say so.

Rain. "How much rain this rain season?" "How many days since it rained?" Totals come from your own gauge: the last 24 hours, the month, your rain season and the last 12 months.

Yesterday and any past day. "How was yesterday?" "When did the rain start on Tuesday?" You get the high and low with their times, the rain and when it fell, and the top gust.

Records. "Is this the hottest day my yard has had this year?" "What's the longest dry spell?" Station Signals keeps your hottest day, coldest night, wettest day and strongest gust, plus streaks and counts.

Your sensors. "What sensors does my station have?" "Are all my sensors working?" You get every sensor, whether it's reporting, and its battery.

Watches. "Check my yard every morning and tell me if anything needs attention." If your assistant can run a task on a schedule, it can watch for a freeze, heat, a big gust, rain, lightning, a weather alert or a low battery. Then it tells you only when something needs you.

The full list, with every question and what each plan includes, is in What you can ask your station.

What your assistant can and can't see

Your assistant reads your station and nothing else. It sees your readings, your rain totals, your history and records, and the names you gave your station and sensors.

It never sees your Ambient API key, your station's exact location or anyone else's home. It can't change anything. You approve it once, on a screen that lists exactly what it can read. You can disconnect it in Settings any time.

How to connect your favorite assistant

1. Join the wait list. Tell us which assistant you use. That tells us which one to get ready first.
2. When you're in, add Station Signals to your assistant. In Claude, add a custom connector with the address stationsignals.app/mcp. We build and test with Claude. Other assistants that connect to MCP servers with a sign-in should work the same way.
3. Sign in and tap Allow. Then ask your first question. I'd start with "What's the temperature in my yard?"

FAQ

Which AI assistants work with Station Signals?

We build and test with Claude, and it works there today. Station Signals connects through MCP, an open standard for linking AI assistants to outside tools. Other assistants that connect to remote MCP servers with a sign-in should work the same way. When you join the wait list, tell us which assistant you use so we know which one to get ready next.

Do I need a special weather station?

You need an Ambient Weather station that reports to AmbientWeather.net, plus a free Ambient API key. Any Ambient model works. Extra sensors, like a pool float, a lightning detector or an air quality sensor, show up in your answers when your station has them. You don't need to buy anything new for Station Signals itself.

Is it safe to connect my weather station to an AI assistant?

Your assistant can only read. It sees your station's readings, rain, history, records and the names you typed. It never sees your Ambient API key, your exact location or other homes, and it can't change anything. You approve it once on a screen that lists what it can read, and you can disconnect it in Settings any time.

Does connecting an AI assistant cost anything?

Agent access comes with paid Station Signals plans when they open. Paid plans aren't open yet. People on the wait list hear first. Joining the wait list is free, and so is the display on your own screens during the beta.

Can my assistant warn me before a freeze?

Yes, if your assistant can run a task on a schedule. Ask it to check your yard every hour or every morning. Station Signals reports what's past a line now, what the forecast says will cross it in the next 24 hours, and what happened since the last check. You set the lines, like 32°F for a freeze. Watches come with Gold plans and up.
