Rich, thanks. I've been trying to find the right balance too, so I'll give
this a try. We had some strong storms roll through yesterday which knocked
power out for a good part of the day and evening. I'll try something
tonight.
I also saw this in a previous reply:
> Would like to see the rain total as a spline and lightning strikes as a
column.
You can specify each observation type's chart type if you want. For
example, in the code below I made dewpoint a column chart. You can apply
this to your lightning chart if you wanted.
[[chart1]]
title = Temperature
yAxisLabel = ""
[[[outTemp]]]
name = Temperature
zIndex = 1
[[[windchill]]]
[[[heatindex]]]
[[[dewpoint]]]
color = gray
type = column
