Lost Weather Days

Updated on

The Lost Weather Days feature allows you to enter the perils and thresholds that result in work-delays for your selected project, and Athenium Analytics provides the monthly average number of days that historically cross those working thresholds. Averages are calculated by analyzing up to 40 years of gap-free weather data for each project's geographic location. When checking our historical weather database, Athenium defines a lost weather day as a day that meets or exceeds one or more of your selected peril thresholds.

Project managers can use this tool to be more prepared for disruptive weather events that typically occur at their project locations. 

Weather Perils & Thresholds

When configuring a new phase or editing an existing phase for a project site, select the LOST WEATHER DAYS page.

If your project could be delayed due to adverse weather events that occur during daytime hours only, select 6 AM to 6 PM from the timeframe dropdown menu. If your project could be delayed by adverse weather events that occur at any time, select 24 hour.

This allows Athenium Analytics to calculate average lost weather days based on the historical data most relevant to your working hours. 

Select each peril relevant to your project location and enter the threshold value that would result in a lost day in the adjacent text box. Threshold values must fall within the range provided next to each peril. 

Select SAVE CHANGES to complete your Lost Weather Days setup.

To view your monthly results, select the back arrow and navigate to the Lost Weather Days tab from your project's Site Management page. Results may take a few seconds to be delivered, as Athenium analyzes decades of hourly weather data for your project's location. 

You may update these perils and thresholds at any time to rerun the Lost Weather Days calculation.
