<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=390420917-02112009>While working with
EPW weather files recently, I noticed that the file format has changed within
the past 2 months. I compared two files for the same location I had downloaded a
month apart (September and October 2009). The October file has 3 new
columns of information. Does anyone know what that additional information
is? A updated list of headers would be nice too. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=390420917-02112009>This format
change would affect some third party programs like Climate Consultant 4 (and
maybe Ecotect/ weather tool) which use EPW file input. </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
