This is from the pressureNET project, my open source app for Android that collects atmospheric pressure readings from onboard barometers. The linked page opens on Hurricane Sandy.

Questions, comments? :)

Wow, that's quite amazing! My only question is: are you just using the data gathered through the pressureNet app in your graphs?

  Thank you! Yes, we are just using the data from pressureNET to draw the graphs. We have other ideas for that data in the near future, such as to provide it to atmospheric scientists, and to analyze it ourselves. We also plan on incorporating other outside data sources like radar imagery in order to enhance the experience using pressureNET.

Awesome, it's surprisingly good data, with very little noise! Much better than I would expect from a phone barometer!
