Please add the ability to display real atmospheric pressure.

Forecast exchange uses pressure data calculated for sea level. One can compare it to real barometer reading using barometric formula:

You could use simplified equation without temperature lapse rate, using pressure and temperature only.
"Real/sea level" switch could be implemented either as hidden option or gui checkbox.

I should better refer to it as "pressure at ground level", as opposed to sea level.
