- Forecast Icons
Forecast Icon Shows Incorrect Conditions
This feature indicates what the weather may be like 12 hours into the
future and not what is happening right now. The weather forecasting
feature is estimated to be 75% accurate. The weather forecast is based
solely upon the change of air pressure over time; creating a necessity to
disregard all weather forecasting for about 24 hours after the unit has
been set-up, reset, or moved from one altitude to another (i.e. from one
floor of a building to another floor). In areas where the weather is not
affected by the change of air pressure, this feature will be less accurate.
To adjust forecast settings see section 2.
What Do the Sun/Clouds/Rain Icons Indicate?
Three possible weather icons will be displayed:
Sunny-indicates that the weather is expected to improve (not that the
weather will be sunny).
Sun with Clouds-indicates that the weather is expected to be fair (not
that the weather will be sunny with clouds).
Clouds with Rain-indicates that the weather is expected to get worse
(not that the weather will be rainy).
Forecast Icon is Blinking
Occasionally the word "tendency," the up (or down) arrow, and the
clouds or sun will become animated. This is a visual indication that
there has been a recent/sudden change in the weather conditions.
Generally, this is the result of a fast low front coming in.
