| Description: | The pressure behaves anomalously during rain events - even very mild
ones. Normally, the pressure undergoes a smooth semi-diurnal
oscillation with little higher frequency variability. However, during
and shortly after rain events, the pressure signal exhibits abrupt
changes - this sort of behavior has occasionally been observed at
Manus but not with the regularity seen here. Examples of this
behaviour occur on (date in the form YYYYMMDD):
