September is often accompanied by a flurry of productivity and positivity, but with new routines to get used to, it's also a time when you need efficient solutions that work.
The weather affects all sorts of decisions we make on a day-to-day basis such as what to wear, where to go and what to take with us. Take a look at some of our favourite solutions below to save you time this autumn, with both digital and analogue options.
Temperature ~ View outdoor temperatures at a glance to make choosing an outfit for the day a breeze. Plus, you'll easily know whether to pack the kids off with a coat.
Rainfall ~ See overnight rainfall readings to help you decide whether little ones need wellies for school or nursery, and what footwear you'll need for the morning dog walk.
Recording ~ As the days get shorter, it can be hard to spend enough time outside but having a daily activity such as taking weather readings can help kids of all ages develop mathematical, scientific and geographic skills, and get some fresh air. Choose from a digital weather station connected to a computer, or physical record charts.

Whether it’s helping a garden to thrive or dampening a day out, there’s no avoiding the rain in our day-to-day lives – especially in Great Britain! Having a rain gauge at home is a great way to get to know your garden better.
The new ClimeMET CM7015 Wireless Rain Gauge has been designed with convenience and reliability in mind. A robust tipping mechanism within the rain cone allows rainwater to trickle out naturally, while any small blockages that may build up over the years are easily cleared with a quick wipe of the removable side trays.
The easy-to-use display console includes a customisable history graph that lets you view recent rainfall, temperature or humidity information with the touch of a button, while our new Sensor Search function can reset connections with all external sensors without you needing to set foot outside. You can also set a variety of custom alerts, so when the rain starts to fall you’ll be the first to know!
Also making use of the brand new CM7 Temperature & Humidity Sensor, the CM7015 Rain Gauge can be depended upon for accurate measurements throughout frosty mornings and summer sunshine.
A CM7-PA power supply is available separately – allowing you to keep the indoor display console powered up at all times without requiring batteries.
The CM7015 comes complete with one CM7 Sensor and is able to receive up to eight of these in addition to the rain sensor, so the next time it’s a rainy day you can keep a step ahead.

The ClimeMET CM1016 Professional Manual Rain Gauge has an accurate and clear display making it ideal for use at home, in the garden, on the allotment or farm.
The 1016 was picked as Amateur Gardening's Best buy and received a fantastic score of 14/15 based on features, performance and value for money: "If you're keen to measure rainfall accurately and don't want to spend a fortune this gauge is just the job."
Suitable for use over a wide range of temperatures, it is frost resistant with carefully crafted components to stabilise the gauge for many years of use outside.
An inner measuring tube is marked in easy-to-read 0.5mm graduations and has a capacity of 25mm. The rain gauge has an overall capacity of 225mm meaning the instrument can be left for some time before an overall reading is collected and an average for the period of time is calculated. Alternatively measurements could be noted down daily with the aid of the CM5011 Rainfall Chart.
