Plot Description:

This chart shows the number of VTEC phenomena and significance combinations issued by a NWS Forecast Office for a given year. Please note that not all current-day VTEC products were started in 2005, some came a few years later. So numbers in 2005 are not directly comparable to 2015. Here is a handy chart with more details on VTEC and codes used in this graphic.

Due to the chart's oblong nature, there is no way to control the image size at this time.
