AllisonHouse Announces Agreement to Acquire MichiganWxSystems and Expand Development Team

WHEATON, IL April 20, 2012 – AllisonHouse LLC and MichiganWxSystems LLC today announced a definitive agreement for AllisonHouse to acquire MichiganWxSystems. Additionally, MichiganWxSystems founder and lead developer will be joining AllisonHouse to support the company’s mission to continue to provide real-time, customizable weather data in formats that are easy to use, easy to integrate and easy to understand.
MichiganWxSystems is the top provider of non-standard data feeds for the popular Gibson Ridge suite of products and has a long history of providing easy to understand graphical representations of weather data.

“I’m excited that MichiganWxSystems will be joining the AllisonHouse team. Combining AllisonHouse’s infrastructure strength with MichiganWxSystems unique data feeds and visualization capabilities creates a compelling portfolio of products and services for the weather community.” said Jeff Lake, Founder MichiganWxSystems.

“MichiganWx and AllisonHouse share a common vision and bring complementary technologies to the table. This couldn’t be a better fit for the both of us. Jeff has done some amazing things with weather data and I’m excited about the future for our customers.” said Tyler Allison, President AllisonHouse.

Full integration of existing MichiganWxSystems data feeds is expected to take 6-12 months, during which existing MichiganWxSystems customers will be allowed to utilize both AllisonHouse and MichiganWxSystems data feeds at no additional cost.

Can you keep a big secret?

Psst.

Hey, you.

Yeah, you.

Come here a second.

Can you keep a secret? Good.

Listen…I just got wind of something going down at AllisonHouse. Yeah, you know, those weather geeks over there? Yeah, it’s gonna be big, and the boss says we all need to get in on this.

What is it? Well, here’s the problem, see. I can’t exactly say what it is or I’ll get into trouble with the bossman. But…I can give three hints as to what it is. Ready? Listen close.

First: The backlog will be annhilated, immediately, on April 16th.

And the second is this: the software is version 2.0 with amazing stuff. No, no, no…it’s not GR3, but that’s coming. Nice guess.

But, here’s your third clue: this software is out of this world. Or shall I say…

EARTH!
