The WEATHER RECORDER

This project is only for experienced home builder.

Front view


  The narrow trace is the outside temperature graph.
  The wide trace is the pressure graph.


Rear view

  • 3 days of recording every 30 minutes.
  • Measurement Range: Barometer; 95.0 to 105.0 kPa, resolution 1mb. Thermometer; -35 to +35 C.
  • Mesurement and graph scales of 1 mb and 0.5 C resolution.
  • Automatic switching between the 2 temperature scales; -35 < +15C for winter and -15 < +35C for summer.
  • Day of the week, time, present temperature and pressure display on the first line.
  • ENGLISH MARKING for day of the week and time header availlable.
  • Display Optrex 160 X 128 pixels, LED backlighted. DK part # 73-1181-ND.
  • PIC16F876-20/P.
USING THE WEATHER RECORDER

  • A DECREASE IN BAROMETRIC PRESSURE ANNONCES BAD WEATHER, RAIN, WIND,STORM, HEAT.
  • A RISE OF BAROMETRIC PRESSURE ANNOUNCES NICER, DRY, COLDER WEATHER.
    1. A slow, regular and moderate fall in pressure indicates that a low pressure area is passing at a good distance. There should not be any marked change in weather.
    2. A sudden decrease, even if it is small, announces a nearby disturbance; normally meaning wind, short showers. If large in 5 to 6 hours, signals a comming storm.
    3. A large, slow and maintained decrease announces a long period of bad weather. This bad weather will be more pronounced if the barometer started higher to go lower.
    4. A sudden rise of the pressure, when the pressure is about average or above average and the weather is nice, always announces the aproach of a low and the barometer will soon start to come down.
    5. A rapid rise when the pressure is low, annonces a short period of nice weather; but, if the rise is large and prolonged, we can count on a many days of good weather.
    6. A sharp change in temperature indicates a change in air mass and wind direction.Read a more elaborate text on barometric pressure
