I have a few govee Bluetooth sensor and I don’t recommend them for indoor our outdoor use.
Bluetooth is flakey at best and battery life is bad. Much better off finding a ZigBee solution.
I’m not sure how you guys would feel about this… but I have a SDR connected to my Unraid server and found that a neighbor has one of those Acurite 5-1 weather stations that I can pick up on a 433mhz signal, parse the JSON file and added it to my dashboard. If you have a SDR sitting around you could scan your area and see what you get.

I second using an SDR with 433MHz devices. Incredibly reliable and low power.
Been using a nooelec SDR and one of these sensors:
Geevon TX10 Wireless Remote Outdoor Sensor
I did exactly this as well. Only I bought my own 433Mhz weather sensors. They are cheap and the batteries last for ages.
