While I was driving home on a rainy night, I passed a golf course where all the sprinklers were on. That gave me the idea for a lawn sprinkler system that could sense the current weather conditions and adjust its watering schedule based on predictions of future weather conditions. More details to come!

How about control to turn an inverter OFF during a thunderstorm?

I can feel some benefits of this over using a humidity sensor in soil. Still seems like an indirect approach.
