past 24 hours in order to determine the future weather. Until that time has
elapsed, the predicted weather forecast may not accurately reflect the actual
weather for your immediate area.
The weather station will display the symbols (see figure 3) to indicate the
predicted weather forecast for the next 12 to 24 hours for an area within a radius
of approximately 30-50 km.
