Turn off your Rachio sprinklers when it rains, there is too much wind, or below freezing.
Close your Hunter blinds when the sun is too intense.
Close your garage door when it is too windy.
Blink your hue lights when it starts raining.
Connect to other web services, such as Gmail, Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest.

Compatible with Alexa
The
Ambient Weather skill provides Ambient Weather personal weather station owners with the
ability to get real-time, and past weather information generated by the devices they have set up at
AmbientWeather.net.
Enable the skill and get started: say "Alexa, ask Ambient Weather for a weather report.". This will
provide you with your outdoor weather report, but you can ask for your indoor weather report as
well by saying, "Alexa, ask Ambient Weather about the indoor conditions." You can also ask for a
report about a specific day, month or year! Just say "Alexa, ask Ambient Weather about the weather
yesterday." or "Alexa, ask Ambient Weather about the weather in May".
