Max wind in last... hour?

[Rob Cranfill]

(My last question was answered so quickly and well, let's see if that can happen again!)

Can my skin (which I'm developing for a little RPi LCD display, and I will share once I'm semi-done) display the max wind in the last, say, 60 minutes?

I've tried

   <div class="currentWind">Recent peak wind: $span($hour_delta=1).wind.max</div>

and variations thereon, to no avail.

Anyone?

LOL! Yes, this error is a little obscure.

The observation type 'wind' is found only in the daily summaries, not the main archive table. So, tags involving "wind" will only work for multiples of a day, such as $month.wind.max.

However, observation type 'windSpeed' does exist in the main archive table. So, instead use 

$span($hour_delta=1).windSpeed.max

Maybe 'wind' should be used as a synonym for 'windSpeed' in queries involving the main archive table...

Thanks, that seems to be what I wanted! (Actually, I think I'm going to use $span($time_delta=1800).windSpeed.max  for a 30-minute peak.)

(Altho we have no wind here in Seattle at the moment so I can't really see the results... but at least it does evaluate to *something*. ;-) )
