6 HOUR TIME SERIES contains
more detail of each 24 hour period. If there are more than two 12 hour time periods with
precipitation, the totals are "smoothed" and graphed. Periods with greater than
10 inches of accumulated snowfall are
totaled. Due to the scaling, 10% density snowfall graphs evenly with the water equivalent
line. This enables a view of
snowfall density that occurred during the storm. Wind is plotted in 6 hour intervals.
Total snow on the ground allows
viewing settlement over time. As with other weather graph windows, users are able to go
back or forward in time.
Snow and water totals are recalculated with each time period. Different periods of time
can be totaled by defining a
range on the bottom x-axis.
