Open source, self hosted weather stations? - Divisions by zero

Does anyone know of a FOSS weather station? I have a Linux based home computer lab and I want to be able to track atmospheric pressure, temperature, and wind specifically. It would be nice to be able to detect rain as well if possible. So I need both a server to have on linux, PLUS the weather station. Does anyone have any recommendations? I strongly prefer large amounts of open documentation as well. Thank you!

What do you mean? FOSS? Open hardware or able to integrate with existing foss like home assistant?

For the latter, I’ve used ecowitt based weather stations myself. they’re very durable, give reliable data and came with a quality manual for not much money.

They come with an app but you can just decide not to use it, all the data is available on the device, hosted as a web server. It has good integrations with HA which is what I use for long term storage together with influxdb.
