  Carter Lake, Iowa Weather
This adjusted pressure is known as relative barometric pressure.
Barometric pressure changes with local weather conditions, making barometric pressure an important and useful weather forecasting tool.
For forecasting purposes, the absolute barometric pressure value is generally less important than the change in barometric pressure.

 Kayak Wiki: Barometric Pressure   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Barometric pressure is the pressure at sea level in the atmosphere.
When barometric pressures are reported, the actual air pressure at a location is adjusted by a standard formula to reflect what the equivalent pressure would be at sea level.
Barometric pressures are quoted in units of pressure - force per unit area.

Barometric pressure also changes with local weather conditions, making barometric pressure an extremely important and useful weather forecasting tool.

The formula is as follows: Td = (-430.22 + 237.7 * ln(E)) / (-ln(E) + 19.08) Where Td is the dew point temperature in degrees Celsius, and E is the actual vapor pressure of the air.
Using that number, then determine the actual vapor pressure E with the following formula: E = (RH * Es) / 100 Plug the value of E into the formula (note: ln(E) means take the natural log of E) and the result will be the dew point temperature in degrees Celsius.
The formula is as follows: RH = (E/Es) * 100 Where E is the actual vapor pressure, and Es is the saturation vapor pressure of the air.

 Barometric formula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The barometric formula, sometimes called the exponential atmosphere or isothermal atmosphere, is a formula used to model how the pressure (or density) of the air changes with altitude.
In this formulation, R is the gas constant, and the term RT / Mg gives the scale height (approximately equal to 7.4 km for the troposphere).
The barometric formula can also be used as an approximation for the distribution of different chemical species in the atmosphere.

Air pressure is also called barometric pressure because barometers are used to measure it.
This was when the Norwegian meteorologist Vilhelm Bjerknes, a leader in making meteorology a mathematical science, urged weather services to use direct pressure measurements because they can be used in the formulas that describe the weather, unlike measures of the height of the mercury in a barometer.
Another kind of barometric reading is the altimeter setting, which aircraft use.

 Correction! Error in Correction Formula Creates Confusion - Article by John Copeland
The correction factor that you arrive at from the tables is somewhat different from the one derived from the formula.
Even if the data correction formula or table you use isn't the most current one, as long as you're consistent with how you adjust for temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure, you'll be able to get maximum benefit from your dyno data.
In retrospect, I should have re-made the corrected data printout using the formula (including the missing factors) that was outlined in the article.

The Barometric Formula,sometimes called the exponential atmosphere, is a formula used to model how the pressure (or density) of the air changes with altitude.
It is based on the simplifying (not very realistic) assumption that the temperature does not depend on altitude.
However, this formula agrees reasonably well with the actual pressure and density variations above the earth's surface up to a height of about 450,000 ft.
