Arduino Weather Station - Ep3: Measuring UV Light

This is the 3rd episode of the Arduino weather station series. I promised to add more sensors, so it's a quick one where I show how to add a UV Light Sensor to the weather station.

I start by showing the UV Sensor module used to allow our weather station to read and process the UV light: it's a sensor that measures ambient ultraviolet intensity in the 200 to 370-nanometer range, including solar ultraviolet UVA, UVB, and UVC light. This UV Sensor also provides a built-in amplifier with adjustable levels.
