Outdoor Temperature Sensor

I'd like to get an outdoor Temperature Sensor that can be used with HA and Google Home. Anyone have any recommendations?

I’m not sure how you guys would feel about this… but I have a SDR connected to my Unraid server and found that a neighbor has one of those Acurite 5-1 weather stations that I can pick up on a 433mhz signal, parse the JSON file and added it to my dashboard. If you have a SDR sitting around you could scan your area and see what you get.

That's exactly what I did. I also have some indoor Acurite sensors too.. but that weather station is definitely one of the neighbors.
