Keep Calibrating your Suunto Core for maximum accuracy
Altitude affects the air pressure and the weather affects the air pressure - how do I know which one’s affecting the readings ?Well now, an advanced user!!! You’re right, they do affect each other, and the altitude has much more effect than the weather, so if you’re going up and down a bit the weather becomes quite hard filter out, but you can do it. With your Suunto Core the main thing is to keep calibrating it, if the weather or height is important - keep calibrating. Generally you’ll calibrate the watch from a map height, this will ensure the altitude is always accurate. But when you calibrate your Suunto Core, stop and think a minute, is the watch reading low, or high. If it’s reading low, it’s good news, since you last calibrated the air pressure has risen - remember - higher pressure means lower altitude - so the watch reads low. If the altitude is reading high, the opposite applies, the pressure has dropped - it could be bad weather ahead.
