<strong>JPATS</strong> AVIATION WEATHER BOOKLET Station Models Some weather charts display the information gathered from individual weather stations through the use of the station model, shown in Figure 2-1. This model begins with a circle (or a square for automated stations) at the center to represent the location of the station that issued the weather report. Around the station symbol, data describing wind, temperatures, weather, and pressures are displayed in a pictorial shorthand (Figure 2-2) to provide the maximum amount of data in a minimum of space. Another noticeable feature of the station model is a line coming out of the circle indicating the wind direction. Since the station models are aligned for ease of reading, north is at the top of the page. Therefore, in Figure 2-1, the winds are from the northwest. At the end of this stick are any numbers of barbs, which come in three shapes, to indicate the wind speed. A long barb represents 10 knots, short barbs are 5 knots, and pennants are 50 knots. The numbers to the left of the station symbol indicate the temperature (top left) and dew point (bottom left). In between the temperature and dew point, there may be a symbol from Figure 2-2 representing the present weather at the station. Additionally, the circle (or square) may be filled in to represent the amount of sky that is covered by clouds, in eighths. An empty circle would mean clear skies, while a fully darkened circle would indicate a completely overcast sky (also from Figure 2-2). The right-hand side of the station model describes the pressure at the station. On the top right, there will be three digits to represent the sea level pressure (SLP) in millibars and tenths. Since SLP will always be somewhere around 1000 millibars, the hundreds digit (and thousands, if present) is dropped, and the decimal point is also omitted. Thus, depicted pressures beginning with large numbers (such as a 9) really start with a hidden “9”, and pressures beginning with small numbers (such as a 1) actually have a “10” in front of them. Below the current SLP is the pressure tendency over the last 3 hours, beginning with a (+) or (-) sign to denote an overall rise or fall, and then the value of that total pressure change. After this notation is a set of two connected line segments that graphically show the pressure change over those three hours, as indicated on the right-hand side of Figure 2-2. 2-2 Version 3.2/Dec 08
