Certainly yes - compensation from weather data is needed, as a fixed 
reference pressure level at a given point does not exist - it varies 
with weather.

On another hand, with 'sealed' buildings the pressure is independent 
from weather _and_ altitude (pretty much as the pressure in a flying 
airplane says on-ground).  A connection to the HVAC should be made.

Af447 experience taught one should worry when pressure sensors are 
flawed by freeze.
