Forecasts Maps of wind, temperature and precipitation are more prominent. For safety reasons, it has become easier to locate where and when storms are likely to be severe.
Observations Minima and maxima from automatic stations are presented, since midnight and since an hour ago. Same information from manned stations

The target user group for the tool, which is aimed to be a first step in determining a strategy for identifying potential risks associated with climate change, is decision makers at the plant level in power companies. The qualitative approach is intended to be flexible, and includes supporting tools. While not directly aimed at professional risk managers, the tools can
