Weather Forecasting Umbrella: To Keep Me Dry

If you are a i-hate-to-get-wet-in-the-rains kind of person then makes sure you own this umbrella. Also known as the Weather Forecasting Umbrella (the name says it all); this little genius is a perfect companion for those suffering from Hydrophobia. The handle has a radio receiver that is inbuilt into it. Whenever it senses some weird weather condition, it triggers of the LED on the base that flashes. Thus you know when to get the umbrella out. The radio frequencies on which the signals are received are proprietary so that the readings aren’t affected by external disturbances from other wireless carrier waves.

The Weather Forecasting Umbrella derives its information from sources like Accuweather.com in the US. It works on a single C battery. The rapidness in the flashing of the LED depends upon how sure the receiver is of the approaching bad weather. You can get this one for $140.
