Announcing the Grand Opening of Our Merch Store

Da Ed Oswald

Pubblicato su:

Weather enthusiasts are passionate. When looking for ways to help fund our video and podcasting work, we wanted to give our readers and viewers something tangible in return for their monetary support. So we’re happy to announce the grand opening of our Merch Store! And in celebration, everything in the store is 25% off through April 16.

But simply throwing our logo on stuff seemed lame. I am not expecting people to walk around with our logo and website address. In creating some of these designs, I wanted to make something you can wear outside of the house (fast fashion that’s worn more than once) while getting a laugh.

Those who have read and watched me know I have a sense of humor, so I wanted that to shine through here. Most designs are available for both men and women, with the design on the front, and our logo and website address on the back – big enough that it’s readable, but small enough that you’re not a walking billboard. But I’m hoping the design on the front gets the attention.

We’ve selected Spreadshop to handle the printing and shipping, which can usually deliver your stuff in under one week.

We hope you check it out (and of course, find something you like).

A New E-Book, Too!

Our Merch Store isn’t all. We’re also making available a new e-book: Home Weather Stations 101: All You Need to Know About Choosing, Setting Up, and Maintaining Your Home Weather Station. Think of this entire website summarized into a 40-page PDF.

In this quick-start e-book, you’ll learn:

  • What features matter most in a weather station—and which ones you can skip
  • How to position your sensors for the most accurate data
  • Common mistakes to avoid during setup and maintenance
  • Which brands and models offer the best value for your budget

Plus, we’ve included a bonus glossary of 100+ weather terms to help you better understand meteorological lingo used by pros and passionate hobbyists.

We’ve made this e-book available on Payhip using a “pay what you can” system. We wanted to give our readers a way to support our work and get something in return. While we have put a price of $2 on it, you can pay $10 or $15 or whatever you want.

Where does the money go?

Of course, we’re transparent. Money from these new offerings will go directly to our podcasting and video production efforts. As we’ve grown, so has the budget. While we had experimented with memberships on YouTube, it wasn’t a good fit for TWSE. These make more sense.

Once things get going, I plan to open our store to reader—and viewer-submitted designs (by the way, the customizer tool in our store already allows you to do that somewhat). I am also looking at ways to use this for the public good, such as fundraisers for charities we support. There’s just so much that can be done.

But first, we need to fund our podcasts and videos. We have hundreds of dollars in expenses coming due and too many ideas.

Don’t forget my other book!

And I’d be foolish here not to mention that I wrote a weather book. Weather Watch: An Introduction to America’s Tempo e clima is now in its second edition. You can find that on Amazon. And if you’re a Kindle Unlimited member, you can start reading it as part of your membership.

Weather Watch: Un'introduzione al tempo e al clima dell'America

Vivi l'affascinante mondo del tempo con la seconda edizione di Weather Watch: Un'introduzione al tempo e al clima dell'America. Questo libro non si limita a spiegare i concetti relativi al tempo e al clima, ma li porta in vita.

Vigilanza meteorologica è perfetto per adolescenti e adulti che desiderano approfondire la comprensione del dinamico mondo della meteorologia. Semplificando il complesso, questo libro scompone la scienza del tempo in concetti più piccoli e facilmente digeribili, permettendoti di ampliare le tue conoscenze in ogni capitolo.

Ecco cosa aspettarsi:

  • Approfondimenti dettagliati su nuvole, pressione e vento, lettura di mappe meteorologiche, uragani e tempeste tropicali
  • Discussione illuminante sul cambiamento climatico
  • Guida essenziale all'acquisto di una stazione meteorologica
  • Informazioni critiche su condizioni meteorologiche avverse e tornado
  • Imparare a prevedere il tempo da soli

Questa seconda edizione viene completamente riformattata con oltre 30 pagine di nuovi contenuti, tra cui analisi avanzate delle mappe meteorologiche e meteorologia spaziale. È visivamente più accattivante con illustrazioni e grafica aggiuntive. Ogni capitolo ora termina con collegamenti utili per un apprendimento più approfondito e, sparsi in tutto il libro, sono accattivanti eventi meteorologici americani, che servono come illustrazioni di vita reale dei concetti introdotti.

Thank you so much for your incredible support these past five years. Your support matters more now than ever. We’re excited to hear what you think, and of course, find something in the store you might like. 🙂

Stay weatherwise, everyone!

At Gli esperti di stazioni meteo, we aim to provide honest, accurate, and helpful information to weather enthusiasts, homeowners, and anyone looking to better understand the weather. We take pride in our editorial independence and commitment to earning your trust.

Come testiamo

Una stazione meteo o un gadget deve ottenere un punteggio elevato in le nostre metriche di punteggio in several key areas, including accuracy, value, durability, ease of use, and feature set.
We only recommend products we genuinely believe are worth your time and money. In most cases, we test and review weather stations and gear ourselves. If we haven't tested something personally, we rely on a combination of verified user feedback, manufacturer specs, and expert insights to make our recommendations.

Divulgazione delle affiliazioni

To support our work, we use affiliate links throughout our website. This means that if you click on a link to a product and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. These commissions help fund our website, pay our writers, and keep our content free for everyone. We never accept payment for positive reviews, and affiliate partnerships do not influence our product recommendations. Our reviews and rankings are based on hands-on experience, independent research, and our goal of helping you make informed decisions.

Trust Matters


We believe transparency is key. If we ever make a mistake, we'll correct it. We're happy to explain if you ever have a question.
