<div dir="ltr"><div>I do want it to draw snowfall amounts, but like in the two images, not "griddy". If you look at, <a href="http://blog.chron.com/weather/wp-content/blogs.dir/2579/files/2014/01/gfs_6hr_snow_acc_se_19.png">http://blog.chron.com/weather/wp-content/blogs.dir/2579/files/2014/01/gfs_6hr_snow_acc_se_19.png</a> that doesn't appear to be drawing those numbers based on a grid at all. They are all scattered about on the map with no real "grid" structure to them. The only way I know how to "control" the frequency (perhaps "stepping" might be a better word?) of the drawing of values would really be to maskout coupled with re-gridding so it doesn't put a number on every possible area that weasdsfc has a value for is. If that makes sense?<br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Sep 25, 2015 at 9:53 AM, Stephen McMillan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:smcmillan@planalytics.com" target="_blank">smcmillan@planalytics.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hello Chris,<div><br></div><div>If you don't want to display all the grid values, then you can use 'draw string...' using the coordinates of whatever stations or locations you want displayed on top of the shaded contours.
