TEMPERATURE AND FORECAST

In TIME, ALTI, BARO, CHRONO, and TIMER Modes, your WS4™ watch includes information about temperature and forecast.

The watch can predict the weather based on historical air pressure trends. Generally, if the air pressure is rising, the weather situation is considered to be improving and is indicated by the sun icon. If the air pressure trend is falling, then the weather situation is worsening and is indicated by showing the clouds and/or precipitation icons.

When worn on your wrist, the temperature reading is affected by body heat and may differ from the actual temperature by 10 degrees or more. Long periods of exposure to direct sunlight may also affect accuracy. The watch can also measure the temperature in water, but make sure you don’t press any watch buttons under water or this will compromise the watch’s water-resistance.
