The barometric pressure field
Barometric pressure display:
By default the current barometric pressure (HIST = 0) is shown in the
unit mb (millibar) or hPa (hectopascal). However, the display can also
be set to the uncommon unit inHg (inch of mercury). Please refer to
section Basic Settings.
The bar graph shows the barometric pressure trend over the past
0, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 hours.
The barometric pressure trend:
or more within an hour and will maintain the direction for one hour
even when it remains steady.
The weather forecast:
The main station calculates a weather forecast for the next about 12
hours based on the barometric pressure trend. Of course this forecast
can't compare to that of professional weather services supported by
satellites and advanced computers, but merely provides an approximate
indication of current developments.

At the top right is the barometric
pressure at the time shown in the
HIST field (history).
If LLL (or LL.LL when setting the unit
inHg), the display range is below
850 hPa (25.1 inHg), if HHH (or
HH.HH), it is above.
The trend will appear as rising (or dropping), when the
barometric pressure changes by 2 hPa (= 0.06 inHg)
