Meteorological measurements need not always require expensive instrumentation. Modern electronic sensors are accurate and readily made to work with well‐supported programmable electronic interfacing systems such as the Arduino series of devices. Construction of an atmospheric pressure display is outlined here, which also provides temperature and relative humidity measurements.
