Interactive archives

The interactive archive is the section of the State Climatologist page that gives the user the most interaction with the large data archive of our office. More stations are available here then any other section of the page. This section is broken up into four sections. These sections include "Data Summary", "Raw Data", "Climatology", and "Graphs".

Data Summary:

Data Summary is where the user can get information on a single day, over multiple days, a month, or a year. After clicking the "Data Summary" button, the first step is to choose a station. Next, depending on the time period of interest, select the dates you wish to look at and then press the submit button next to the dates selected. Then a new window will open with the data. In this new window there will be a summary of the data that falls in the time period. All missing data is displayed as "M" and trace amounts are displayed with a "T".

Next, depending on the time period of interest, select the dates you wish to look at and press the submit button next to the dates selected. Then a new window will open with the data. In this new window there will be the raw data for the selected time period. All missing data is displayed as "M" and trace amounts are displayed with a "T".
