That Acurite Iris 5-in-1 model is not a bad option, but I personally prefer the AmbientWeather stations; I've had an Ambient WS-2902C for about a year and a half now and have been thoroughly pleased with it. It can talk to a number of crowdsourced weather platforms, including the Ambient Weather Network, Wunderground, and PWSweather, too. It also has more options for expansion with additional sensors, although some of them (like the PM2.5 air quality sensor) are only supported as pass-thru sensors to ambientweather.net (i.e. they won't be shown on the console that comes with it). The AmbientWeather station setups are super customizable. Definitely worth a look if you're considering getting a personal weather station.

The Ambient Weather network is pretty nice (here is the page for my station, for example), but I plan to also connect it into Wunderground too for their better interface.
