How to connect HA to Weather Station and log data

Hello there,
I found a weather station in my garage and want to connect it to HA to log the data. But not sure how to do it.

The weather station in question comes with a receiver that is: Aercus Z758, model WS1093, Frequency 433. Does it mean that i can buy a separate receiver, connect it to HA and use HA to log data to db, csv or any cloud-based storage/app?
Any input about how to approach this appreciated.

Thanks,
Alex

Most weather stations have a remote unit that sits out in the elements and transmits a 433Mhz signal back to a base station that displays the weather, and usually has a USB port to connect it to a computer. This seems to be what you have:

The way most people seem to do this is to connect the base station to a computer, and use the base station’s included software to upload data to one of the online weather platforms, and then use HA to connect to the online service and pull the data into HA. Alternatively the base station may support some third party software on the connected computer to upload to the net.

It seems inefficient I know. It would be nice to cut out the middle man and have an HA component that connects directly to the software running on the computer connected to the base station. weewx or similar should be open enough to do that, but it seems no one has.

But your weather station will be useless without the base station. Is that in the garage too?

Thanks @nickrout that’s very helpful.

I have both the weather station and base station/screen. The reason it was in the garage and i never was able to properly use it is because i was only able to find windows software for it to log data. And i dont have any windows machine at the moment.
Also, the idea of base station being constantly connected to computer seems hard to implement if it is a laptop and not a stationary computer.

I have hassbian on raspberry pi. So was hoping for some kind of device that can receive weather station data (hence base station replacement) and either log it in the cloud (via wifi for example) or get HA/another software on raspberry pi access to it and so HA would do logging.
I thought working with weather data is in a way similar to receiving data from sensors and hence some kind of hub that works with sensors can also handle weather station data.

Does it make sense?

However from your comment, it seems that such solution doesn’t exist, is this correct?

Thanks again for helping me with this,
Alex

Many, though not all, Weather and Temperature sensors using the 433MHz band are supported by rtl_433.

If your device is supported, for $15USD and a little bit of software you might be able to integrate this device.

thanks for this. I wasnt able to find Aercus Z758, WS1093, in supported device protocol though…

A little research…

This page…

… seems to indicate the weather station bundled with the WS1093 is a WH1080.

And this page…

https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433/issues/133#issuecomment-183138159

… indicates that the WH1080 is supported.

Also on the rtl_433 page, you can see device type “32” is the WH1080.

So… there are no guarantees with this sort of thing, but, I’m pretty sure it would work.

What does HA mean here ? I had been using a data from a AWS for my research and currently the person monitoring it says that it is displaying HA.

I assume HA means Home Assistant…
