Yep. Threadex isn't very useful in Boston because of the huge difference in Logan vs the previous site. It was amazing that Feb 2015 nearly beat Feb 1934 despite the different location. If it had been the same, it definitely would have been a record like we saw at BDL and ORH. 

The 100F days are also affected. Harder to get at Logan of course than the previous site. 

Lets put a weather station on a tarmac feet from the ocean and use it as a database marker to respresent conditions in the city. I cringe every time the media says Boston is x temp or had x inches of snow.

Logan has to be the biggest joke of a city representative in the US

Agree!  I mean LAX vs the official site near downtown representative of LA wx.   LAX would often have a high of 73 while officially downtown and where most folks lived would be 10 degrees higher.   Same at BOS.   I’ve been 10+ higher multiple times this summer.

Everything is relative I guess...
I can count the days (one-hand) here that the temperature has failed to surpass 90F since May.
Ex: presently  T -  97F, Td - 78F, H.I  - 113F
But I did see the Stones, ate at a 5 star restaurant and realized I'm not 40 anymore last-night!  LOL

Well the problem being it's not there for maintaining a weather record. It's there to control flight ops at BOS. Paying observers to hang around every major city to collect weather obs wasn't seen as a priority so they got cut. Automation FTW!

Nashua with a 93/77 ... ooph... 

That's amazing.  NWS site with a DP that high.   May be why they are 93 when KOWD/KBED/KFIT/KBOS are all 95 to 97/75-ish...

ASH is actually an AWOS, so a little grain of salt with the dew there. A lot of 77s at ASOSs though down in SNE and Tri-State area. That's real deal around here.
