Have a new Sio/Scan weather station model 81690, that does not have the correct pressure, I don,t know how to set it to my area. Would appreciate any help.
The way to calibrate barometric pressure is to compensate for elevation. You can find your elevation at Google Eath, or at this site by typing in the name of your town, and zooming in on your location:

After finding your elevation, you need to subtract the loss in pressure due to elevation. Here's any easy way to calculate the adjustment (this is a close approximation):
Correction = 3.6 millibars x (elevation in feet) / 100.

SPOKANE -- Bitter cold temperatures set in over the Inland Northwest on Saturday morning, breaking records as many people around Spokane scrambled to prepare for the big freeze.
Many new records were set with the onset of the cold. In Bayview, Idaho the low temperatures on Saturday dropped to eight degrees, smashing the old record of 21 set on October 10th, 1985.
In addition to Bayview, new low temperatures records were set in Spokane, Deer Park, Pullman, Moses Lake, Spokane Valley, Ritzville, Coeur d'Alene, Kellogg, and Lewiston.
At the Spokane International Airport the temperature dropped to 23 degrees Saturday morning. The old record of 25 was set back on a chilly October morning in 1977. Just a short distance away at the National Weather Service's office just off Rambo Road, the temperature dropped to 10 degrees.
Coeur d'Alene set a record with a mark of 19 degrees early Saturday, breaking the old record of 27 set back in 1896 - a year after they began taking temperature records in Coeur d'Alene.
Weather stations are great for telling what the conditions are inside and outside the home. However, many homeowners are put off by the amount of wiring required to install one. The main benefit of using a wireless weather station is that it doesn’t need any wiring, saving both time and money. It functions just as well as a convention weather station and only requires the occasional battery change. It can even be used to monitor the conditions inside a garage, cellar, or greenhouse that is located away from the home. A weather station is also an interesting teaching aid to help children understand how the weather works.
A wireless weather station consists of a main unit and one or more remote sensors. A large LCD display shows the readings in large numbers that are easy to see, and some displays are illuminated so they can be seen in the dark. Some units only support one sensor but most support up to four sensors. The main unit can be placed on a desktop or mounted on a wall. Several colors and styles are also available, making it easy to find a unit that suits the home decor. The battery powered units have the added advantage of not requiring an ugly power cord.
Along with the temperature and humidity sensors, there are other sensors available for a wireless weather station. A barometer can be used to measure air pressure and a UV sensor can measure the strength of ultraviolet light from the sun. Sensors can be placed outside or in another room, depending on the requirements of the homeowner. The sensors send their readings back to the main unit using radio signals. This makes them prone to interference but that can be avoided by switching them to another channel, provided the units have selectable channels.
Choosing a location for a sensor must be done in accordance with the guidelines in the manual. A sensor that is placed in the wrong spot can give false readings or even be damaged by the elements outdoors. It should also not be put where it is difficult to reach, since the batteries need to be changed every few months. A wireless sensor should also not be put on any metal surfaces, since the presence of metal near the antenna will significantly reduce the range.

Rain gauge has a see-saw like tipping bucket inside that records how many times it is tipped with magnets to calculate the frequency of rainfall. Works on the same principles as a bike computer.
Has a range of about 100m, works great at my location. We don't have any fluorescent lights :)
