How the Clock Works
The clock has a barometric air pressure sensor at its core
that continually measures the atmospheric air pressure
throughout the day.
Even inside a relatively air-tight home, the air pressure
changes are sufficient for your clock to forecast from, as you
will see.
By monitoring the air pressure, the clock can tell whether it
is rising or falling in relative terms over time – an important
aspect of weather forecasting. (See the following sections
for further details.)
Very simply, if the clock notices the air pressure is rising then
it will forecast sunnier weather. Conversely, if air pressure
falls then the clock will forecast rain. The faster the rate of
change, the more extreme the swing in either direction.
With just these simple parameters to work from, one has to
expect the barometric forecast to not always mirror the sky
outside. The clock’s illustration of what the air pressure is
doing may sometimes surprise you, however, we hope you
will find its more whimsical tendencies amusing and a true
reflection of the simplicity of barometers of old. There is
more information to follow and a much more in depth guide
available on our website.
