#                  days with information in each station
# 'ColorRamp' :  Character or function defining a personalized color ramp for ploting the maps. \cr
#                Valid character values are in c("Days", "Precipitation", "Temperature",

# 'ncolors'   :  Number of color intervals that will be used for differentiating
#                from 0 to 366 days with information
# 'main'      :  Main title for the plot
