A long standing feature request was the ability to generate
wind roses for a time period of choice. You can now try to
generate your own wind roses, but the code is somewhat
sensitive :) So please be patient with it as it attempts to
generate these informative plots.
You can also limit the dataset to include only obs from a
certain hour. So you can ask questions like, giveme a wind
rose for 5 AM during the summer months.
As always, let me know of suggestions and such.

| Title : Trade your car for a snowmobile?

+----------------------------------------------
IEM delivered state road conditions are once again showing most of the state with mostly snow covered roads. The good news this time is that the winds are not making things worse by reducing visibility and causing drifts. Snowfall totals will approach 5-6 inches over the Southeast corner of the state.
