The display of wind is hard to see.

I like the black background, but the wind numbers are dark rust and barely show up when you are 6 feet away. Note how hard they are too see in the photo below.
The weather station works great as expected and like my previous one. Easy to install. The display, regardless of being a newer design, is harder to read in medium to high light environments, the font color contrast is not great enough in my opinion for east reading, no manual way to change background brightness is a degradation in functionality. Increasing the wind speed ring and direction and reducing indoor parameters is also a degradation in my opinion. The higher frequency reporting from the station is a nice added feature compared to my old station.
The only change I would love to see is on the inside monitor I really wish the indoor temp and a couple other readouts were in a much larger font I could read across the room same as the out door temp
Love the display and layout but lost wifi and have not been able to get it to reconnect..
