I walked on flat ground most of yesterday, but acquired my lighthouse badge for passing 50 flights! And it appears I am on track to do it again today.

    Is it windy or is the weather otherwise in flux? The stair count can be wildly inaccurate - I never even look at mine any more because stair climbing isn't a regular part of my activity and because it was always wrong. It is worst when we have a lot of wind.

    In fact, it's been windy here lately, so I just checked. On Monday, it was very windy and I exercised inside, and didn't climb the stairs more than a handful of times. My Fitbit counted 115 floors.

    It doesn't affect your calorie calculation, so don't worry about it.
