The operating system and web browser often depend on the location. For example, at the NY state competition for 2009, they had Mozilla Firefox in addition to IE, and at PA states 2009, competitors were given a choice between Firefox and IE for web browser and a choice between Windows and Mac OS. You are allowed to use programs such as Notepad or the Calculator.

	Make sure that at least one of the two members knows Microsoft Word 2007 and Microsoft Excel 2007 thoroughly and knows how to get around. Be sure to know how to organize data, as this is much of the event. Know how to create/edit ALL of the basic charts. This includes all of the Column charts (2-D, 3-D, Cylinder, Cone, Pyramid), Line (2-D, 3-D), Pie (2-D, 3-D), Bar (2-D, 3-D, Cylinder, Cone, Pyramid), Area (2-D, 3-D), and Scatter. The most prominent ones would have to be the Line, Bar, or Column charts. Be sure to know how to add a data tables, lable axis, add a title, etc.		Make sure that at least one of the two members knows Microsoft Word 2007 and Microsoft Excel 2007 thoroughly and knows how to get around.

	[[image:meteogram.gif]]		[[image:meteogram.gif]]
		+
		+	The graph along the top of the Meteogram shows temperature and Dew point. temperature is the top line(green) and dew point is the bottom line (blue)
		+
		+	The abreviation EXTT (extreme temperature) shows the maximum and minimum temperatures which are plotted below the chart at specific reporting times. 12Z and 18Z are generally low temperatures and 0Z and 6Z are high temperatures.
		+
		+	The WX shows the current weather data at the time of data collection
		+
		+	SNWDP would show snow-depth if there where any.
		+
		+	PREC would tell you precipitation in inches
		+
		+	VIS tells you visability in miles
		+
		+	WGST would tell you windgusts
		+
		+	WIND (winds and cloud cover) - This is same sympols wind and cloud cover symbols used in the station models
		+
		+	Cloud chart will give cloud layer information. The vertical axis is height of cloud base in feet. The layers are plotted as horizontal lines.
		+	*Clear skies are plotted as a 'C'. S
		+	*cattered cloud layers (1/8th to 3/8th coverage) are plotted as a single short dash.
		+	Broken cloud layers (4/8th to 7/8th coverage) are plotted as two short dashes. Overcast layers are plotted as a single long dash.
		+
		+	The actual cloud ceiling is displayed below the chart in 100s of feet if the ceiling is below 10,000 feet.

		+	Pressure chart - This chart plots sea level pressure (or altimeter setting if pressure not reported) in millibars.

		+	as many of you see it has the winds blowing the "wrong" direction if we are thinking about the coriolis effect right?
		+
		+	if you read above you will hopefully remember the global cells and the area that the winds are blowing "backwards" in is the Ferrel cell.
		+
		+	this happens because winds blow from high pressure to low pressure. there is a subtropical high at 30degrees and a sub polar low at 60 degrees therefore the wind blows from 30degrees to 60 degrees.but it is not unefected by the Coriolis effect because it still curves it is just effected differently

	If the Earth did not rotate on its axis, we would have a single circulation cell in each hemisphere.

	The Coriolis Effect causes wind patterns in the Northern Hemisphere to differ from wind patterns in the Southern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere, the Coriolis Effect deflects the movement of air to the right. In the Southern Hemisphere, this movement is deflected to the left. This creates the three main wind belts found at the surface of each hemisphere including the easterly trade winds, prevailing westerlies and the polar easterlies.
