A. Weather 

Icons 

 

There are 3 possible weather icons that will be displayed in the 
FORECAST LCD:   

 

 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). 
 
The weather icons change when the unit detects a change in air 
pressure. The icons change in order, from “sunny” to “partly 
sunny” to “cloudy” or the reverse. It will not change from “sunny” 
directly to “rainy”, although it is possible for the change to occur 
quickly. If the symbols do not change then the weather has not 
changed, or the change has been slow and gradual.  

 

B.  Weather Tendency Arrows 

 

Other possible displays in the FORECAST LCD are 2 weather 
tendency arrows, one that points up (on the left side of the LCD) 
and one that points down (on the right side of the LCD).  These 
arrows reflect current changes in the air pressure.  An arrow 
pointing up indicates that the air pressure is increasing and the 
weather is expected to improve or remain good.  An arrow 
pointing down indicates that the air pressure is decreasing and the 
weather is expected to become worse or remain poor. No arrow 
means the pressure is stable.
