Dear Jim, Thank you for your reply and pointing this out. I thought about it and then I forgot. I have computed the weekly average (and max and min). The data is below. Again I computed the max/min/mean by each year, so each file contains data for one year. Can I modify the code I used for count? Thanks again!
