FAQ: Difference between revisions

For Fine Offset stations, the ‘latest’ value in Cumulus corresponds to the ‘gust’ value on the station. The ‘gust’ value in Cumulus is the highest of the ‘latest’ figures in the last 10 minutes. The ‘average’ value in Cumulus is either the ’speed’ from the station (a 48-second average, apparently) or, if you have Cumulus set to calculate a 10-minute average, it’s the average over the last 10 minutes of the ‘latest’ values. If you also have 'use speed for avg calculation' set, then the Cumulus-calculated average is the average over the last 10 minutes of the 48-second 'speed' values supplied by the station.
