Forecast Icons Inaccurate
THIS WEATHER STATION LEARNS OVER TIME!
Please allow 3-4 weeks for barometer calibration to generate an accurate forecast.
IMPORTANT: As the Weather station builds memory, it will compare the current average
pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the
Weather station operates in one location, the more accurate the forecast icons will be.
Weather Forecast Icons: This Weather station has six forecast icons that predict the
weather condition of the next 12-hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure. The
weather forecast is about 70-75% correct. As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly
forecasted we are not responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.
 Sunny (clear)
 Partly Cloudy
 Cloudy
 Stormy
 Rainy
 Snowy (temp below 32 ºF)
The icons forecast the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny
or rainy, as each icon indicates.
