Weather in Context for QPF

Youngling Posts: 2 Join Date: 12/18/13 Recent Posts

I am assuming the Weather in Context information for the QPF is only looking at historical precipitation amounts for the current day. Would it be possible to open that up to the entire current month? current month and adjacent months? This would be ore useful for Hydrology because it gives more of a seasonal perspective.

Hi Brian.

You're correct that the QPF is only looking at that current day's record. I agree that monthly records would be great for added context.

I've added it to the list for us to consider in a future release.

Brian, Please note that monthly and all-time WIC records were added to WSUP in yesterday's v6.4 release. Thanks for making this suggestion.
