SparkFun MicroMod Weather Carrier Board

The MicroMod Weather Carrier Board is a peripheral for the

MicroMod ecosystem

that allows you to create your own weather station with one of a multitude of processors. The carrier board includes three sensors: the BME280 temperature, pressure and humidity sensor, the VEML6075 UV sensor and the AS3935 Lightning detector.

Along with these onboard sensors, there is a 3-pin latch terminal to add an external soil moisture sensor as well as a pair

RJ11

jacks to plug in the wind and rain sensors included with a Weather Meter Kit. To top it all off there is a microSD card slot so you can plug in an SD card to log all of that glorious weather data using the MicroMod processor of your choosing!
