WHY DOES THE STATION SHOW DIFFERENT COLOR TREES?
The trees and foliage color will change seasonally to provide variety to your station.
Programmed dates in the weather station tell the trees when to change automatically.
FORECAST INDICATORS: WHAT DO THE FORECAST INDICATORS MEAN?
Standalone Station:
When operating as a standalone station, the forecast indicators predict
weather conditions over the next 12-hours based on the change of atmospheric pressure with
about 70-75% accuracy. As weather conditions cannot be 100% correctly forecasted we are not
responsible for any loss caused by an incorrect forecast.
Forecast Indicators for standalone station:
• Sunny
• Partly Sunny
• Cloudy
• Rain
• T-Storm
• Snow
Note:
The “snow” indicator appears when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) and the forecast
is rainy or stormy.
• Your station calibrates barometric pressure based on its location over time to generate an
accurate, personal forecast. Please allow 7-10 days for barometer calibration.
• The forecast station samples the barometric pressure every twelve minutes. These samples
are averaged hourly and daily then stored in nonvolatile memory. The three hour pressure
indicator change is based off of the last four average hourly readings.
•
IMPORTANT
: As the Weather station builds memory, it will compare the current average
pressure to the past forty day average pressure for increased accuracy. The longer the
Weather station operates in one location the more accurate the forecast indicators will be.
Connected Station:
When your station is connected to the La Crosse View™ app you will see an
additional 8 forecast indicators from the National Weather Service (NWS). Your forecast will
