Pressure /Borometer wording between todayyest and records page : Not very important

Do we have consensus on which is the preferred option?

Second one makes more sense as the Barometer is the instrument that measures pressure. Pressure does not read a barometer!!

Or just turn everything into Pressure. Would make it easier for translation.

Definitely pressure and not barometer!

That's what I think too

@mcrossley: Do we have consensus on which is the preferred option?

Atmospheric pressure, also known as barometric pressure (after the barometer), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth. The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm)

So far it seems to be Pressure... but maybe use a graphic http://www.komokaweather.com/weather/glossary.html

Hmm, not sure where that difference came from.

You can fix this simply by:-
In todayyest.php (both MX and C1) :-
at line 265
Change
Barometer
to
Pressure

This makes both pages consistent and where all terms are Pressure.
will update in next release.

Comma vs No Comma

Working on an alternate set of tag files with the No Comma RC version of the tags where they exist.
There are not all that many so it is unclear if all instances on the web pages will be changed.

This will allow you to be in control and decide which version you want.

Hope to post later today (New Zealand Time )

Would appreciate any users with this problem to PM me with the URL to your site so I can see the issues and also your thoughts on this and any other comments you would like to make.

Thanks
