Sea Level Vaccum High Altitude Vaccum
my question is that in San Diego CA my vaccum read 20 and now that I'm in Denver CO my vaccum reads 14. Can atmostphere or high altitude affect vaccum readings by 6. I really hope so.

I understand that vacuum usually is reduced about 1" Hg for each 1000 ft in altitude. Really interesting when you consider that weather reports show barometric pressure at 29.96" Hg for the "standard value" even at 10000 ft. elevation. It's not, but apparently they "correct" the numbers to sea level, whatever that means!
