- 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.
