Statistics for CAN_BC_Comox_CWEC Location -- Comox BC CAN {N 49° 43'} {W 124° 54'} {GMT -8.0 Hours} Elevation -- 24m above sea level Standard Pressure at Elevation -- 101037Pa Data Source -- WYEC2-B-24292 WMO Station 718930 - Using Design Conditions from "Climate Design Data 2005 ASHRAE Handbook" - If the design condition source is ASHRAE, the design conditions are carefully generated - from a period of record (typically 30 years) to be representative of that location and - be suitable for use in heating/cooling load calculations. If the source is not ASHRAE, - please consult the referenced source for the reasoning behind the data.
