Hello Tom,

My question is more related to understand theoritical calculations   :-)
Weewx works perfectly !

 but I try to understand what is done in stdWXCalculate.

I may have misunderstand, but my understanding is that calculation is:

barometer = pressure /  exp (-elev_meter / (t_K * 29.263))

is this correct?
t_K is current temp in Kelvin or ?
