Animated Color Forecast Icons 

 

Animated forecast icons use changing atmospheric pressure to predict weather 
conditions for the next 12-hours with 70-75% accuracy.  

 

INTELLIGENT WEATHER FORECAST 

This station learns; please allow 3 to 4 weeks for barometric calibration. This will ensure 
an accurate personal forecast for your location. 

 

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.
