wttmrwolf Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'm not sure Watsons Bay 2030 NSW is returning the correct barometric pressure. I see 1020 when the barometer is closer to 1010. Are you sure its picking up the location correct? Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
