Actually Logan's METAR -fwiw - at 17:54

KBOS 061754Z 19009KT 10SM SCT060 BKN070 35/21 A3014 RMK AO2 SLP207 T03500206 10361 20261 56015

36.1 max works out to 96.98 ...so excluding Meso west book keeping technique ... looks like 97 to me.

Yeah that is the hourly METAR update.  But the 5 min obs earlier were only 36C.

John it makes more sense if you use these obs from ISU

They don’t covert and display the high frequency obs to avoid the confusion. You can get the temp in whole deg C from the T group though. The hourly METARs have the tenths and get the conversion to deg F.

Figured it was a later arrival..

man...it is just f'n hot as hell along this end of Rt 2.   We got an impressive CB head with conjoining dark towers punching into it, visible to my south - buddy says constant thunder in that...but we can't buy anything overhead in this incinerating gap in the sky.  It's 96 at all home stations within a mile or two of town's center, with DPs 70 to 73.. .

This may be the tallest HI we've had here -   brutal!!

I’m seeing that CB from the south. Whole bunch of stuff pancaking against the tropopause.
