    Hi there,

    I find the Woking weather site interesting and useful. Thanks.

    I use it, amongst other things, to compare with/adjust my mercury and aneroid barometers. They are in ins. and unless I have totally lost it your data showed pressure in both mbs and ins, but you don’t seem to do that anymore. Apart from doing the calculations myself is there anyway of accessing the data in ins?

    Regards

    Hi Andrew,

    Sorry for the delay in the response. You’re right about not being able to change the units any more. I obviously changed that setting when I re-designed the live weather page. I’ll look to add it back in again for you then post back here.

    Glad you find the site useful.

    Kevin

    Andrew,

    I’ve updated the settings, you can now click on the Units button at the bottom, change the pressure to ins and then save the settings.

    Regards

    Kevin
