Weather Forecast Icons
The Forecast Station predicts weather condition of the next 12 hours based on the change of atmospheric
pressure with 70-75% accuracy.
Note:
As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted, we are not responsible for any loss
caused by an incorrect forecast.
THIS STATION LEARNS
The Forecast Station calibrates barometric pressure based on its location over a period of time to
generate an accurate, personal forecast. Please allow 3 to 4 weeks for barometer calibration.
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.
IMPORTANT:
As the Forecast Station builds memory, it will compare the current average pressure to the
past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the Forecast Station operates in one
location, the more accurate the forecast icons will be.
