Forecast
The forecast icons show what weather conditions may occur within the next 12 hours.
The console generates a weather forecast based on the barometric reading and trend;
wind speed and direction; rainfall; temperature; humidity; latitude and longitude;
and time of year. The forecast is updated once an hour, on the hour and requires three
hours of data. Predictions are made for cloud cover and the likelihood of
precipitation.
Wind
The anemometer measures wind speed and direction, and is part of the Integrated
Sensor Suite (ISS). The console calculates a 2-minute average wind speed, a 10-minute
average wind speed and 10-minute dominant wind direction. The 2- and10-minute
average wind speed are displayed in the Weather Center whenever wind has been
selected on the console. The last six 10-minute dominant wind directions are included
in the compass rose wind display.
