NOAA 'Departure from norm' data
« on: September 15, 2016, 08:14:58 AM »
Hello Folks

I notice that in my NOAA Annual reports, I only have data for the 'departure from norm' column for September. Is there any obvious reason for this? Is it to do with the recent Weathercat Software update?

Regards John

Hi John,
How many years of data do you have - do you have data from previous years for the months showing a departure of 0?

Hi

No I don't have any previous year's data in WeatherCat, presumably this is what the 'norm' is based on then - as apposed to met office data? That would explain it!

Sorry for the slow reply!

Regards
John

Correct - it's the norm for your data set.
