Current Deep Thunder Forecast for New York
Products for Consolidated Edison Operations
Wind Speed at 4 km between Data Points
Description
This page contains an animation that is a visualization of the Deep
Thunder forecast focused on
Bronx and Westchester Counties.
It uses data from the intermediate nest at 4 km resolution. Each time
step corresponds to twenty minutes of forecast time. The specific
data and representation shown are for potential use for ConEd operations
and planning.
In this case, there are maps of forecasted sustained wind speed
as color contour bands (miles per hour) at the twenty minute interval,
following the legend at the lower right.
The contours are overlaid with arrows of the same color showing the direction
to which the forecasted winds are flowing.
The map is accompanied by a number of additional overlays,
including coastlines and state boundaries in black, county boundaries in dark gray,
ConEd feeder cell boundaries in light gray,
and cities or other locations in black. Water bodies are shown in gray.
