Yes, Michael and Alex gave me one for my birthday last year. It seems to be off by about 5-10*. No matter what it says right now it is COLD! LOL

Us too. Its pretty accurate though.

Its hanging right outside our kitchen window, the north one. Last year I hung a hummingbird feeder off of it and every time I checked to see what the weather was, there was a hummingbird there. Loved it.

Right now though, I don't like seeing it at all. :mwhistle:

We have one at the front and one at the back of the house. There is always at least a 5 degree difference in the temperatures. Front faces north and back south.

I have a regular mercury thermometer screwed to the window frame outside. I check it daily.
You can get high-low thermometers. I use one in the barn. It tells me how cold it got and how warm it got in there. You have to be able to get at it, to reset it so it wouldn't work on my window frame outside. But I like it, it's real handy!

We have an electric one that has an outside probe and you are able to read the highs & lows as well as the current temp on it's digital display.
Got our finger on the pulse here.:)

We don't have one but I would like a nice one on the porch or deck. Trouble is it's just so shady that I don't think it would be very accurate.

The kids bought me one for Christmas but we don't have it up yet.

We have two thermometers that read the indoor/outdoor temps via a sensor that is outside. Very accurate!

We have one outside on the porch and an indoor one as well.

We have two. One on our bedroom window (the first one I check after rolling out of bed) and one on the side light window next to the front door. It's a larger one, so we can read it from the kitchen.

We used to have a little cheapie that attached itself to the outside of the kitchen window. When it kept telling us that it was over 40C (104F) I "adjusted" it with a hammer.
