Hello, I live in Switzerland and received my Tempest 2 weeks ago (see previous message), so it seems available in Europe, though you may have to order it in the US. As I understand, the hub was the problem, as US and Europe have different standards for WiFi. The problem has been solved. I know at least 3 other Tempest user at less than 20 km from me, and all report observations regularly. Note also that Weatherflow them self monitor and publish continuously your station. The weatherflow udp driver pickup the "broadcast" signal to feed weewx, a very clever trick!. Paul
