    heating and cooling seasons. Low humidity can cause health problems and can be hard on wood furnishings. High humidity can cause mold or mildew to grow. 3.2 Hygrometer Accuracy Humidity measurement is among the more difficult problems in basic meteorology. Accuracy is difficult to achieve and are subject to drift, so need regular recalibration.
  • Page 4: Absolute Vs. Relative Pressure

    The weather forecast or pressure tendency is based on the rate of change of barometric pressure. In general, when the pressure increases, the weather improves (sunny to partly cloudy) and when the pressure decreases, the weather degrades (cloudy to rain). The weather forecast is an estimation or generalization of weather changes in the next 24 to 48 hours, and varies from location to location.

    unless the barometer is moved to a new geographic location. 5. Dial Thermometer Figure 3 The dial thermometer uses a bimetallic strip wrapped into a coil. One end of the coil is fixed to the housing of the device and the other drives an indicating needle. The principle behind a bimetallic strip thermometer relies on the fact that different metals expand at different rates as they warm up.
