[Equest-users] New CWEC files and snow/rain flags - update

Christopher,

This is very interesting information for several reasons:

(1) the snow and rain flags are not part of the raw data stream from the weather stations, 
so I've assumed they have to be extracted from the Present Weather reports,

(2) the wy3 is a derived weather file format developed for ASHRAE back in the late 1990s 
so old that Env Canada might be the only place still using it; I'm not aware that the wy3 
contains the snow/rain flags but they must have been put there by Env. Canada, and I would 
be very interested to see how these flags correlate to what I can get from the Present 
Weather data in the raw weather files.

In the little bit of time I've spent looking into this issue over the past week, I was 
unsure which of the PW codes should be used for the Snow/Rain flags.  Take a look at the 
attached table of Present Weather Observation Codes currently used in weather station 
reports, i.e., METAR.  Should we use all the 7's as ISNOW, although 74 - 76 refers to "Ice 
Pellets", and what about 85 - 87 referring to "Snow showers or intermittent rain"?  
Similarly, we can use all the 6's as IRAIN, but what about  24 (Rain), 25 (Freezing 
Drizzle), etc.?   That's why I'm very interested to see what Env. Canada did.

(I'm also adding BLDG-SIM back to this post because the same issue has been in discussions 
there, too.
