conditions with outdoor temperature and barometric pressure data. The
forecast is depicted with three different weather icons and tendency
arrows. For exact time, the forecast station’s time and date reset daily
via WWVB radio transmissions from the US Atomic Clock. The forecast
station illustrates the moon’s phase and presents barometric pressure
history for the past 24 hours in a bar graph.
