Class Description
Kinds of analogs (floats) measuring an atmospheric condition.

| snow | Snow amount over a specified period of time. | |
| windChill | The temperature of how cold it “feels like” based on the rate of heat loss from exposed skin caused by the effects of wind and cold temperatures. | |
| windSpeedGust | Maximum instantaneous wind speed in the 10 minute period preceding a moment in time so long as more than 10 knots of difference has been exhibited between peaks and lulls during that 10 minute time period. | |
| 0 value means no gusts during preceding 10 minute period. | ||
| windSpeedInstantaneous | Wind speed at a moment in time. | |
| windSpeedPeak | Peak instantaneous wind speed in the 60 minutes preceding a moment in time as long as peak speed greater than 25 knots. | |
| 0 value means speed did not exceed 25 knots during preceding 60 minutes. | ||
| windSpeedSustained | Average instantaneous wind speed over the 2-minute time period preceding a moment in time. | |
| verticalVisibility | ||
| albedo | ||
| ambientTemperature | The temperature measured by a thermometer exposed to the air in a place sheltered from direct solar radiation. Also known as “dry bulb” because the air temperature is indicated by a thermometer not affected by the moisture of the air. | |
| atmosphericPressure | ||
| ceiling | ||
| dewPoint | The temperature to which air must be cooled at constant pressure and constant water-vapor content in order for saturation to occur. In other words, it is the temperature at which water vapor starts to condense out of the air. |
