Recreating weather forecast charts
Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2023 12:27 pm
Hi Dave,
I'm working towards recreating some of the weather forecast charts now that I'm off FW. I'm trying to create a simple line chart that would low and high temperatures for the next five days. I cobbled together the CSV files in a way that I think makes sense (and have python scripts running to automate this) but the charts never show future dates. The data looks like this:
Since I did this manually, it's the same time of 7 consecutive days. When I create a line chart of this, it only shows the chart for 1/17, 1/18 and 1/19 (today) but not the future days. Am I missing something in the formatting of the CSV data or do the charts not normally plot future dates?
thanks,
Aldon
