IoT-Based Weather Station

1. Introduction
An IoT-based weather station is a smart system that collects environmental data and displays it
in real-time on the Blynk app. This project monitors temperature, humidity, gas concentration,
and rain detection using various sensors integrated with the ESP8266 microcontroller.

2. Components Used

⦁ ESP8266 (NodeMCU) – Microcontroller with Wi-Fi capability.

⦁ DHT11 Sensor – Measures temperature and humidity.

⦁ Gas Sensor (MQ-2) – Detects harmful gases.

⦁ Rain Sensor – Detects rainfall.

⦁ Blynk App – Displays real-time weather data remotely.

3. Working Model

⦁ The ESP8266 collects data from the connected sensors.

⦁ Sensor readings are processed and sent to the Blynk app via Wi-Fi.

⦁ Users can monitor temperature, humidity, gas levels, and rain status remotely through
the app.

⦁ Alerts can be set up for abnormal readings.
