Entry: Beginning of Season

URI: https://codes.nws.noaa.gov/StatPP/Data/Time/SeasBeginDay

An instant in time that generally recurs annually and is used to designate the first date each year when these parameters are intended for use. This concept can be encoded in a variety of ways. Least preferred are 2-digit and 4-digit integers. The most preferred encoding is to represent the annually recurring date by encoding midnight UTC on that same date in the epoch year of 1970. (E.g. the date 01 October would be encoded as 23587200, which is the Unix epoch time at 1970-1-1T00:00:00. Generally used to support seasonal stratification of a StatPP technique.
