Have just seen tonight's TV weather forecast. Storm force winds and heavy rain over the Christmas period. But what caught my eye, from an aviation point of view, was the pressure in the "low" just to the north of the UK - it was 930 mB !
It got me thinking, can an altimeter scale be wound down that far ? And, if not, what setting would one use (as if anyone would want to be flying in that kind of stuff anyway ! ) ?
Anyone any thoughts on this ?
