[ILUG] Remote weather station

[Tony Groves]

This is an interesting thread, since I have been half-thinking of
installing a weather station at a remote building I maintain in the
Wicklow mountains. There's no internet connection there, but there is a
mobile signal, so I suppose the solution would be to find some way to
attach a mobile phone to an on-site GNU/Linux machine, send the info by
SMS, and update the website from that. Must admit, I've done no serious
research yet, but since the topic has arisen, it would be nice to hear
if anybody has ideas about hardware/software for the communications end
of things.

Tony.
