Precision Weather Forecast
The display console features a weather scale, a graphic
representation of the rate of change for a particular weather page.
For most weather pages, this scale will simply show the rate of
increase or decrease.
For example, when pressure weather page is being viewed, the
scale example here is showing that the pressure is falling rapidly.
In this example, the outdoor temperature weather page is being
viewed, the scale example here is showing that the temperature is
staying relatively steady, with only a slight rise in temperature.
When the wind speed page is displayed, the weather scale converts
automatically to show you a linear wind direction scale. In this case,
the wind is coming out of the WEST at 12 m.p.h.

Forecast Display
The forecast display area gives you the predicted weather forecast
for the next 4 hour, 4 to 8 hour, and 8 to 12 hour time periods. Each
time-period will also display the predicted High and Low
temperatures, as well as the chance (%) for precipitation.
The forecaster is always analyzing the available data, and
consistently updates the forecast icons and highs/lows/precipitation
chance as time goes on. This will help you to plan ahead for the next
12 hours of weather at any given time.
The weather forecast icon will display one of 18 different weather
conditions. The Moon will show (as a simplified Moon Phase) instead
of the sun when the forecast time period occurs overnight.
Below is an example of just three of the 18 forecast icons.
Initial learning mode
The Forecast will not display predicted high or low temperatures or
chance of precipitation for the first few hours after powering on.
During this initial learning mode, the weather forecaster will observe
minute changes to learn your weather patterns and increase the
accuracy of the initial forecast. Note that the forecast will become
more accurate as it obtains more information about your micro
climate.
