Arduino + S4A + Python = Weather station

Hi all! I've been playing with Arduino and the S4A (Scratch for Arduino) Scratch mod, and I've made a basic weather station. I used a TMP36 temperature sensor, an Arduino Uno, and a breadboard (I don't like soldering that much  tongue ). The Arduino sends the temperature data to S4A, and S4A sends the data to Python using Remote Sensor connections. Python then uploads the data to a website using FTP. 

Here's the code on GH:

Or you could do it all from Arduino (in C)... but cool!

Yeah, I probably could have, but I was more comfortable using Scratch and Python for this one.  smile

Cool idea, I hadn't heard of the S4A mod yet.

And contrary to the general consensus of the thread, I actually do like soldering.
