Consider the data set below extracted from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration $($NOAA$).$

$\backslash$table$[[$City$,$State,Year,$\backslash$table$[[$Snowfall Total$],[($inches$)]]],[$Stevens Point,WI$,2008,106\mathrm{.}9],[$Stevens Point,WI$,2007,78\mathrm{.}0],[$Stevens Point,WI$,2006,88\mathrm{.}0],[$Stevens Point,WI$,2005,83\mathrm{.}2],[$Stevens Point,WI$,2004,77\mathrm{.}3]]$

Which of following term best describes the data?

Trick question, it would be Cross$-$sectional Data except for the fact that only data from the city of Stevens Point is shown. For this to be true Cross$-$sectional Data, the data set span across the area, including data from nearby municipalities such as the towns of Amherst, Plover, and Junction City.

Time Series

Cross$-$sectional

Trick question, it would be Time Series Data except for the fact that NOAA data dates back to $1871,$ and an incomplete data set such as this could not be classified as true Time Series Data.
