Winds

The WINDS program, which runs on XBONES, shows the user a historical display of windspeed and direction. This helps to make intelligent decisions about stopping observing in case of severe weather and when it is safe to restart. It can be started by using the command winds and selecting a display type, usually /xs.

The information plotted in yellow is from the ATCA weather station. The brown information is from roof of the control building.
