Hi Chris,
To start with your question about the barometric sensor in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, yes, they are there, but they are being used for elevation and you don't have access to them directly. I am not sure if Apple allows developers access to them since then somebody could I guess make an app where they display barometric pressure. Now, as for the Netatmo weather station, it's basically yes to all your questions. If you buy the basic package for $180 you get 1 indoor and 1 outdoor module. The indoor module gives you indoor temperature, minimum and maximum indoor temperature from 12:01 AM to Midnight, indoor humidity, CO2 level, noise level in decibels and barometric pressure is displayed. The outdoor module measures current temperature, minimum and maximum temperature, it gives you Feels Like temperature and also shows outdoor humidity. You can buy up to 3 more additional indoor modules for $79/each if you want readings for other rooms/areas of your house, they are like the outdoor modules and give you everything except for noise level since that uses too much battery power and requires the main indoor module which needs to be plugged in. Netatmo also offers a rain gauge which is of the tipping bucket design and which works great.It gives you total rainfall starting at 12:01 AM until Midnight, but if you want to know you have to check just before midnight because while the previous day's amount is there for sighted people, it is currently not accessible with Voiceover. When Netatmo first came out it was almost completely inaccessible. I bought a station and contacted the company. Their head developer in Paris, France got a hold of me and we had several Skype conversations about accessibility, he made changes which I tested and the result was a very accessible app which gives you most readings, but not all of them. Netatmo is also in the process of developing an Anemometer (a wind sensor) which would pretty much complete the stations capabilities.

Would that weather station give me accessible indoor and outdoor readings, including accurate barometric pressure? I'd love to have accurate numbers for the severe storms we get here in summer, and possibly even contribute data to somewhere. I last looked into weather stations before smartphones and wireless, so I have no idea what the state of things is currently. Related question: Is it true there's a barometer in the newer iPhones? I have a 6 Plus. If so, how do I read it? (Copied to Raul in case my posts are still being lost in the void.)
