Although I'm confident 8/1935 and maybe even 7/1911 would've been hotter. 3 straight 5 min obs of 36C there and a couple b2b 36C obs before that. There's a shot they snuck a 97F in there. Could well be. PQI reached 99 in both those months. However, that site's hottest days are heavily weighted 1935 and earlier. Their POR started in 1893 though they have lots of skips during the first 50 or so years. One example is 7/1911 - they touched 99 on 7/11 but 7/1-7 is missing and elsewhere 7/4 was as hot or hotter.

tamarack Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 I'm guessing wide left. Hope I'm wrong. Potent-looking little storm on radar, seems to be moving just east of due north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why is NWS Caribou calling it 96F (there is an updated NWS Chat), when the intermediate obs are 96.8F/36C, which would be 97F for the high. Where are they getting 96 from? I've only seen reports of 95F and 97F or 35/36C. Is it an average of a time interval? From what ive understood the high temperature is a 5 min average right?

A 36C ob can either be 96F (35.6C) or 97F (36.1C). But when you convert it directly from 36C you get 96.8F...which isn’t really the precise temperature. And yes, ASOS uses a running 5 minute mean. Multiple obs are averaged for a raw 1 minute value and then those minute values are part of the running 5 min mean. However only measurements in whole degrees F are reported. So there really is no 96.8F observation. It’s just a rounding limitation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we cant see what the actual C temp was because it was rounded to the nearest degree. So likely it was 35 point something, say 35.7 and rounded to 36C. That makes sense. Still an all time record high as the latest record is the one that stands (which i never really agreed with) same with snow measurements. They usually do point out that it was a tie and list the previous years too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a solar grid they would pump water through to heat the pool. It was nice My dad had panels that did that for our domestic water at my family’s house back in the late -1970s. It was horrendous for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
