A new dialog was added to show the most frequently requested storm summary
information on one screen. The "Storm Summary" dialog presented users with the
declared precipitation type on the roadway, conditional probabilities of rain, snow, and
ice precipitation, snow accumulation, road temperature, wind speed, blowing snow alerts,
and the recommended treatment (Fig. 14.2). Users were pleased with this new dialog, as
it provides a good overview of an upcoming storm. The combined probability of
precipitation graph is an innovative way to present multiple variables. It was well
received.
