Raspberry Pi + BME280 and DHT22 = Automated Temperature, Humidity and Barometric Pressure Monitoring

Outdoor readings of temperature and humidity (DHT22 sensor). Includes derived dewpoint, daily and monthly minimum and maximum values.

Short Term Barometric Pressure, Pressure Deltas and Pressure Delta ARMA, 10 min intervals

(Bosch BME280 Sensor)

Pressure delta = Change of barometric pressure between previous and latest reading, shows which way the barometer is trending in the short term ( 10's of minutes ) and how much it is changing.
ARMA, Auto-Regressive Moving Average = A moving average of pressure deltas over time. This reveals the long term ( over several hours ) trend of the barometer, showing direction and the magnitude of it's change. The value is equal to the approximate change in barometric pressure per hour. The ARMA roughly correlates to the strength of a storm and the wind speeds that are occurring.

Barometeric Pressure Graph

Barometric Pressure:100ths of inches with a floor of 29 inches of mercury. ((inHg - 29)*100)

Basically, the bar graph shows a barometric pressure value in 100th's of an inch of mercury above a floor value of 29 inches. ( A reading of 67 for example would be 29.67 inHg. A reading of 123 would be 30.23 inHg ) This allows the readings to fit neatly onto the graph and with a reolution that is usable. The barometer bar graph is useful to quickly view a trend in the barometeric pressure. It is updated hourly starting at 6:25 AM Eastern Time.

Raspberry Pi Picture

Raspberry Pi Server Picture

This is the computer that collects the weather data and provides it on this website. It is about the size of a pack of cigarettes and uses about 4 watts of energy. It uses a DHT22 sensor to collect outdoor temperature and humidity data and a Bosch BME280 sensor to collect barometer data along with the room temperature and humidity for the room that it is located in.
