Can anyone suggest a good weather instrument set for home use? Something i can use with a pi or arduino?

Davis Instruments makes some of the best and most accurate devices. I have the Vantage Pro2 sensor suite and recommend it. More expensive than some but worth it. There are various ways to upload data to the internet.

I have an AccuRite weather station, it has an indoor and outdoor component. The indoor display is connected via USB to a Pi running WeeWX under Raspbian. It works well, I would recommend it.

Agreed. My AcuRite/RPi/Weewx combo has been running solid since Dec 2014, with zero issues.

If and when it does die, I'll switch to a Davis and whatever newest RPi is available.
