Weather Monitoring System Using Arduino UNO R4 WiFi

Weather Monitoring System

Learn how to create a simple IoT-based weather monitoring system using the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi. This project collects real-time data, such as temperature, humidity, air quality, rainfall, and atmospheric pressure, and displays the information on a local web dashboard. No cloud service or third-party platform is required, making this setup ideal for offline environments.

Features of the IoT Weather Monitoring System

  • Monitors temperature, humidity, air quality, pressure, and rainfall
  • Displays real-time readings on a local Wi-Fi dashboard
  • Operates without cloud connectivity
  • Built with Arduino UNO R4 WiFi, which includes onboard Wi-Fi
  • Easy to assemble and customize using basic electronic components

Components Required

Components required to build an Arduino Weather Monitoring System


To build this system, you'll need the following:

  • Arduino UNO R4 WiFi
  • DHT11 – Temperature and Humidity Sensor
  • BMP180 – Pressure Sensor
  • MQ135 – Air Quality Sensor
  • Rain Sensor Module
  • Breadboard and Jumper Wires
  • USB Cable for Programming

How It Works

Once powered on, each sensor reads environmental data. The Arduino UNO R4 WiFi processes this data and hosts a local web page that displays real-time values. Since the dashboard is served over your local network, there's no dependency on internet access or cloud platforms. Any device connected to the same Wi-Fi can access it.

Real-World Applications

This weather station can be adapted for various use cases:

  • Educational Projects – Great for learning about sensors, IoT, and data visualization
  • Smart Homes – Monitor indoor/outdoor conditions for automation
  • Gardening & Agriculture – Track weather changes for irrigation or crop planning
  • Offline Setups – Works in remote areas without relying on cloud platforms

How Rain Sensor Works & How to Use it with Arduino

The raindrop sensor also known as rain detector sensor is an easy-to-use device that can detect rainfall. It acts as a switch when raindrops fall on the sensor, other than that with slight tweaks in the code, it can also measure the intensity of the rainfall. This sensor also has a separate indicator led and an onboard potentiometer through which you can adjust the sensitivity of the output digital signal provided by the sensor.
