Weather Forecast - Conrad 64 63 68 Bedienungsanleitung

 Weather forecast
The weather forecast of the weather station is one of the most interesting features. Although the weather station can
of course not replace the professional weather forecast on the radio, TV or in the Internet, the weather forecasts have
a remarkable accuracy of 70% based solely on measuring and observing the air pressure in the past days.

In the settings menu ("SETTINGS"), you have to enter the approximate altitude of your location so that
the measured air pressure can be converted accordingly. Air pressure values are normally stated with
reference to sea level on the radio, TV and in the Internet.
Please note:
• The display does not represent the current weather conditions but it is a forecast of the next 12 to 24 hours.
• The calculation of the weather forecast based on the air pressure results only in a maximum accuracy of about 70%.
Therefore, the weather may be completely different on the next day. As the measured air pressure is only valid for
a region with a diameter of approx. 50 km, the weather may change quickly. This is especially true in hilly or
mountainous locations.
Therefore, don't depend on the weather forecast of the weather station, but inform yourself locally when you would
like to hike in the mountains, for example.
• In case of sudden or larger air pressure fluctuations, the display symbols are updated to indicate the weather
change. If the display symbols do not change, either the air pressure did not change or the change occurred so
gradually that it cannot be registered by the weather station.
• If the weather forecast "Sunny" or "Rainy" appears, the display also does not change when the weather turns better
(display "Sun") or worse (display "Rain"), as the display symbols already show the two extreme situations.
• The display symbols indicate a weather change for the better or worse, which does not have to mean sun or rain,
however, as indicated by the symbols.
For example, if the current weather is cloudy and rain is displayed, this does not mean that the product malfunctions,
but rather that the air pressure has dropped and that a worse weather condition is to be expected, which does not
necessarily have to mean rain, however.
• After commissioning, you should not pay attention to the weather forecasts for the first 12 to 24 hours, because the
weather station first has to collect air pressure data in this period at a constant height above sea level to make a
more exact forecast.
• If you take the weather station to a place that is significantly lower or higher than the original site (e.g. from the
ground floor to the top stories of a building), the weather station may interpret this as a weather change.
• If "Sunny" is displayed at night, this indicates a clear, starry night.
