Do you ever find yourself standing outside yet still somehow wondering what the weather is like? No? Well, apparently you aren't the target audience for the Kestrel 4000 Weather Meter, the modern update to licking your finger and holding it up in the air. Recording everything from humidity to wind speed to barometric pressure, this thing will give you all the details about what you're experiencing by standing outside. Of course, it won't help you plan anything, as you have to be outside to use it and it only measures current conditions, but if you're recording stats for scientific purposes I'm sure that'll come in handy. Along those lines, it can record data over time and give you trend info, so you can recall how cold you were all winter as you stood outside and held up your new Kestrel 4000 Weather Meter. It's available online now for a mere $329. — Adam Frucci
