Hi All,
I think I bought the wrong board. I need to connect the weather sensors to a Raspberry Pi, directly, in a remote location that will have no wifi or internet service. It needs to be able to be turned on from completely dead and start providing weather information. This information will be gathered off of the Pi at intermittent times.
There's nothing in the instructions for the OurWeather station on how to get at the weather information without going through some sort of wifi interface. However, the other board, "weather board w/ grove" looks like it is designed around an I2C interface. It looks a lot like the OurWeather board, but without the wifi chip. I don't know if I have enough time to order the other board, so I'm hoping there is a way to connect the Ourweather board directly to a Pi through I2C through jumper wires. Can anybody give me a few tips/a direction to look in?
Thank you for any help.

You can make the OurWeather board act like a I2C slave, but it is quite a project to do that.
The other board (the WeatherBoard) is designed to work with a Raspberry Pi, but you will still have to interface the WeatherRack instruments through GPIO pins.
