I have some simple 'rules' which couple the rise or fall of
barometer
reading with season and wind-direction. They are not my original
work -
having been cribbed from somewhere about 30-odd years ago, and as
others
will point out, such 'rules' abounded in the pre-computer age.

It may be worthwhile having something like this in the FAQ.


.... indeed, it might: but (done properly) it will need a separate
structure etc. As I wrote, I'll get around to it one day ... but needs a
lot of research etc., to avoid just wholesale copying of existing texts.
It is something I intend to do though. There are lots of 'rules' based
on single readings relating to such as whether or not frost is expected
at night (based, for example, on afternoon temperature and relative
humidity or wet bulb), and the one I posted recently relating to
build-up of Cu during the day. Many of these could be useful.
