consists of gauges showing: Wind Direction, Wind Speed, Pressure, Humidity,
Temperature, PRT. There is also a digital readout of Dew Point. Buttons beneath
each of the gauges allow you to choose the displayed units and other options.
Each gauge also shows the maximum and minimum values recorded during the
current session. The wind speed gauge also shows the maximum gust speed.
Note: MetView will not show data if the unit is set for SDI-12 format.
