RECENT ADDITIONS TO STATISTICS LIST

1. Set up files for the common times that certain weather phenomena occur (including graphs):

· Max Air Temperature

· Min Air Temperature

· Max Wind Speed

· Min Wind Chill Temperature

2. Created average (long term) graphs for:

· Humidity

· Dew-Point Temperature

· Max Wind Gust

· Min Wind Chill Temperatures

· Weather Phenomena data (2 graphs)

ie for Rain days, Distant Thunderstorms & Thunderstorms and Dew, Fog and Frost

3. A redo of wind direction data (plus graphs)

4. A redo of all set time files (mainly to make it quicker for me)
