A reviewer recommended we link out to a map of the hucs or include a map of the watershed units, so that people understand where our centroids are coming from and the actual areas they represent. In our discussion we decided to adjust the ? page so that it includes details about how we adjusted the data because the pres memo says data should be available at the huc 12 level, but we are resampling them for ease of visualization for this graphic representation.

One other area to update in Temperature info: Why is the latest available Stream Temperature not for today? The latest model run requires a summary of the weather (precipitation and temperature) for a complete day. A sequence of operations begin at midnight starting with collecting observed weather data and ending several hours later with estimates of natural water [storage] temperature and an updated map.
