ANIMATED COLOR FORECAST ICONS
Animated forecast icons use changing atmospheric pressure to
predict weather conditions for the next 12-hours with 70-75%
accuracy.
INTELLIGENT WEATHER FORECAST
This station learns; please allow 7-10 days for barometric
calibration. This will ensure an accurate personal forecast for
your location.
The forecast station samples the barometric pressure every
twelve minutes.
These samples are averaged hourly and daily then stored in
nonvolatile memory.
The three hour pressure icon change is based off of the last
four average hourly readings.
The icons forecast the weather in terms of getting better or
worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon
indicates.
FORECAST TENDENCY INDICATORS
Working with the forecast icons, the tendency indicators let you
know if the weather is improving, steady or worsening.
