Its a La Crosse WS-2308 - 11.

When I set this up it was attached to my PC - now I want to move it to my MacBook Pro so I can access the software. However the only cable that came with it originally was a RJ11 and 9 pin serial port cable.

In that case you need a USB to RS232 adaptor. There are many varieties. If the weather station only connects to Com 1 or com 2 you may need to get into the control panel-system-devices or wherever the Mac allows you to do the same and change the COM port allocation as these adapters normally connect to com port 3 for the first USB that you use and will then allocate another if you change USB ports.
