he forecast icon is programmable in the setup menu above.

he unit predicts weather condition of the next 12 – 24 hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure. The weather forecast is about 70-75% correct. As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted we cannot be responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast. 18-hour Barometric Pressure History Graph The bar chart indicates the air pressure history trend over the last 18 hours. The “0” in the middle of this scale is equal to the current pressure and each change bar represents how high or low in “hPa“. When read from left to right, if the bars are rising, it means that the weather is getting better due to the increase of air pressure. If the bars go down, it means the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to worsen. Low Battery Icon Low battery icon indicates low battery for clock or sensor.
