My AcuRite® offers a variety of Custom Alert Types to support your monitoring needs. Each alert type is associated with a compatible AcuRite sensor. When selecting an alert type, My AcuRite® verifies you have a compatible sensor.
Alert notification is generated when a Dew Point measurement is above or below a specified degree.
Dew Point is the temperature at which the air becomes fully saturated with water vapor (i.e.100% humidity).
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Notos™ (3-in-1) Weather Station, Temperature & Humidity Sensor, Outdoor Temperature & Humidity Monitor, Lightning Tower
Alert notification is generated when a Feels Like measurement is above or below a specified degree.
Feels Like is a measurement of how hot or cold it really feels like outside. The Feels Like temperature is calculated and displayed only when the current temperature reading is between 40° Fahrenheit (4° Celsius) and 80° Fahrenheit (27° Celsius).
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Notos™ (3-in-1) Weather Station
Alert notification is generated when a Heat Index measurement is above or below a specified degree.
Heat Index is a measurement of how hot it feels outside and is only calculated when temperatures exceed 80° Fahrenheit (27° Celsius).
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Notos™ (3-in-1) Weather Station
Alert notification is generated when a Humidity reading is above or below a specified degree.
Humidity, or relative humidity, is the ratio of moisture in the air as compared to the maximum amount of moisture the air can hold, which varies depending on the air temperature.

Alert notification is generated when a Light Intensity reading is above or below a specified Lux.
1. Dark/Night – 0-500 lux
2. Low Light – 501 – 5,380 lux
3. Overcast/Shade – 5,381 – 21,520 lux
4. Daylight – 21,521 – 43,050 lux
5. Direct Sun – 43,051 lux or greater
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station
Lightning Closest Strike Distance alert
Alert notification is generated when the Closest Lightning Strike is registered within a specified distance.
Lightning is the occurrence of natural electrical discharge of very short duration and high voltage between a cloud and the ground or within a cloud, accompanied by a bright flash.
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Lightning Tower
Alert notification is generated when the Rainfall has exceeded a specified measurement during the current hour.
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Rain Gauge
Alert notification is generated when rainfall is either detected (including specified measurement) or not detected for the current day.
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Rain Gauge
Alert notification is generated when a Soil Temperature reading is above or below a specified degree.
Compatible sensors: Liquid & Soil Temperature Sensor
Alert notification is generated when a Temperature reading is above or below a specified degree.
Example: Alert me once the temperature has risen above 90° F
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Notos™ (3-in-1) Weather Station, Temperature & Humidity Sensor, Outdoor Temperature & Humidity Monitor, Indoor Room Temperature & Humidity Monitor, Lightning Tower
UV Index alert
Alert notification is generated when a UV Index reading is above or below a specified intensity.
2. Moderate 3-5
3. High 6-7
4. Very High 8-10
5. Extreme 11+
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station
Alert notification is generated when Water is either not detected or detected by a wired water detector sensor.
Compatible sensors: Wired Water Detector
Alert notification is generated when a Water Temperature reading is either above or below a specified degree.
Compatible sensors: Liquid & Soil Temperature Sensor
Alert notification is generated when a Wind Chill measurement is below a specified degree.
Wind Chill is a measurement of how cold it really feels outside. The wind chill formula relies on environmental data including the wind speed and the ambient air temperature, Wind Chill is a measure of how cold it really feels outside and is only calculated and displayed when temperatures are below 40° Fahrenheit (4° Celsius).
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Notos™ (3-in-1) Weather Station
Alert notification is generated when a Wind Gust reading is above a specified measurement.
Compatible sensors: Atlas® Weather Station, Iris® (5-in-1) Weather Station, Notos™ (3-in-1) Weather Station
Alert notification is generated when the Humidity reading (wired humidity sensor only) is above or below a specified degree.
Compatible sensors: Spot Check Temperature & Humidity Sensor
