Following the period of Sleet / Wet Snow here earlier this morning
which has now all gone due to rain, there have been some intersting
falls in 3hr Barometer Pressure. Readings as follows:
03z = 1016.3mb
06z = 1011.4mb (-4.9mb)
09z = 1004.5mb (-6.9mb)

and currently at 1245z 994.6mb (-9.9mb)

I have an Oregon Scientific alarm clock which emits a
storm signal during an extreme pressure event such as
this. It normally is triggered once or twice a year and
is usually accompanied by extremely strong winds. In
this case there was virtually no wind when the storm
signal sounded at around 7am. Where was the wind?

Alan.
