Looking at my weather station charts for today:

There was almost 2 mb sudden drop just before 0800 and then a few hours
later around 1300 a sudden 1mb rise. Not seen that before here.

Is the pressure transducer indoors? There is a change in wind speed at 0800
and really big chnage at 1300. I've seen similar pressure "variations" here
when the wind changes speed an sometimes direction.

Yes it is - I hadn't thought of that - thanks Dave.

Cheers
