FORECAST 

What Do the Forecast Icons Mean?

Standalone Station: When operating as a standalone station, the forecast icons predict weather condition over the next 12-hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure with about 70-75% accuracy. As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted we are not responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.

Forecast Icons for standalone station:
• Sunny
• Partly Sunny
• Cloudy
• Rain
• T-Storm
• Snow

Note: The “snow” icon appears when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) and the forecast is rainy or stormy.

Your station calibrates barometric pressure based on its location over time to generate an accurate, personal forecast. Please allow 7-10 days for barometer calibration.

Note: As the Station builds memory, it will compare the current average pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the Station operates in one location the more accurate the forecast icons will be.
