Monthly Data Tab (LT Mode Only)
The Monthly Data shows historical degree day and peak day temperature statistics for the selected weather station. A drop-down box presents the list of weather stations and weather zones. The Monthly Data tab is divided into two panels. The top panel (Chart View) graphically displays the data. The bottom panel (Grid View) numerical displays the data. The full range of historical data is available for viewing. However, the displayed range is based on the Zoom, Date Range, and the Data Range Selection bar.
