              Love it, around 26C or so, my kind of temperature.;)
              If the sun goes in it aint cold, if it stays out it's still bearable.

              Never seems to last for long though.
              Colder by the weekend apparently.

                The Weather Station in the garden recorded 74f and a breeze of around 3mph. The skies had plenty of cloud but the Sun was out and it felt really comfortable. Right now the temperature is 69f and the pressure reading is 998hpa.:coffee::snorky:

                  The sun was up with the birds early this morning but soon vanished leaving a grey day. This last hour or so it's been drizzling, or should I say misting as it's very light. 21C/70F

                    Hi @ARMANDII .:biggrin:
                    Following on from our conversation on Saturday.
                    You said you were stuck with fahrenheit, ok with me, but cant work out why you are fannying around with hpa's when we have good old inches or even millibars, failing that I'd even accept Cm, but hpa just has to be a Euro "thing":lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                      I agree with you, pete, but my "super duper" Garden Weather Station only quotes pressures in "inHg", "mmHg", or "hpa " . But even our own Met Office now states pressures in hpa while also showing isobars, so now they quote sea level pressures in their forecasts in hpa terms.:dunno::snorky: My Weather Station records, because I want it to, my local [relative] air pressures while the Met Office only quote pressures in their forecast using one level, that of sea level. So it doesn't matter if you live at sea level, 100 feet, or 2000 feet above sea level where there are different pressures due to the difference in height......the Met Office only quote air pressures, in hpa, at Sea Level.:wallbanging::snorky:

                        But as far as i can work out one millibar equals one hpa, it's just the French that got us using it due to Pascal being a French bloke.
                        It's a bit like we are not supposed to mention GMT anymore because it has Greenwich in it.
                        It's UTC.;) same thing to you and me, but just puts Greenwich out of the word

                        Have a look here and get your barometer adjusted to sea level.

                            But then it makes a total nonsense of you quoting your barometer reading because we dont know your elevation and therefore dont no how much to compensate.

                            You will always be quoting a lower air pressure due to elevation,
                            which has no effect on the weather in your area.

                            We all need to be singing from the same hymn book for it to have any relevance.
                            It's a barometer, not an altimeter, that is why it has that screw at the back.;):snork:

                            I've got this mental image of you scribbling on a Black Board, pete
                            [​IMG]

                            I post the air pressure in my area, pete, so that people know what's happening in my area.
                            I can't see you, pete, thinking "Hmmmm, I really want to know what ARMANDII's pressure is comparative to mine" and then subtracting my quoted local air pressure against the "one size fits all" sea level hpa air pressure that the Met Office issue in their forecasts.:heehee: To be honest, I don't think many people are aware that Met Office's air pressure quotes are not relevant/true to them if they live above sea level.:doh::dunno::snorky:
