well I am baffled still!! day.wind.max I assumed was from the max column of the archive_daily_wind table - or is it in fact a result of max(windSpeed) from the archive table??
day.wind.gustdir is what?? My archive_daily_wind table has no such column - but it does have a column called max_dir, and the archive table has a column called gustDir (with a capital D) - but what/where is gustdir?? day.wind.gustDir is what?? gustDir is the column name in the archive table I guess I am missing or not understanding some fundamentals regarding the use of tags and tables, and in particular when the daily summary tables are used and when the archive table is used!!!!
