Weather display "Oscar Outlook"

Similar to the almost forgotten weather "house" where a person came out of the door with an umbrella if the weather was bad and wore light clothes if it was good, WS 550 US has "Oscar Outlook".

The behavior of this character is based on various weather factors; hence it is im- mediately possible to know the type of clothing one would need outdoors.

Not only the current measured values for outside temperature, humidity, wind and rain are evaluated for this display.
