Just semantics, but it would be that much more impressive if the calendar said November. Between the temps like this plus the scant 0.09" of rain we got this month, I feel I like I'm back in Arizona.

MAG5035 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 KAOO appears to have already eclipsed its daily record of 78ºF set back in 1950 (topped 79ºF a bit ago). UNV’s daily record also set in 1950 is 81ºF and it’s “only” been about as high as 77ºF so far today so that one may still be safe. Here at the house it’s been as high as 79ºF and currently at 78ºF. Quite breezy today as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they got to 80 right now...1 degree to tie. It is possible they may have gotten to 81 (actually not yet if the HI is right. 80/55 equal an 81 HI) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not too bad. Generally, I need them to get into the low 60s before it starts feeling summer-like. But admittedly, I haven't been outside a whole lot today.

This is the latest 80 degree reading in the 21 years I have taken observations here. Amazing. All we needed is the trees to drop their leaves and Nantmeal would suddenly be warmer than the Philadelphia heat island. It struggles to hit 80F in July in that jungle.

Bubbler86 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 We at least have a record tie. It may not actually be 82 with that HI of 82 but should be at least 81. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like mid summer peak humidity but for October 31 it's ugh. For sure sticky for damn-near November. Not to cast doubt on either of you, and Training I know you take pride in that station of yours so don't get mad at me haha! But all of the official stations in the state are below 60 for DP (https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=CTP&issuedby=CTP&product=RWR&format=CI&version=1) and all of the ones around us are 55-57ish. Plus the Mesonet looks like this...... I think I've gone on about this before, but I just don't trust many home stations when it comes to DP. I've found over the years that they spike pretty badly with regards to DPs, even more so than with temp. I don't trust my own and generally use the local stations. Not trying to start a fight on this beautiful Halloween day, just engaging in weather nerd buffoonery. Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, and I get the confusion, but those are not necessarily the exact temps. I believe the raw data is in Celsius and they round off the number and then convert to Fahrenheit, which can lead to discrepancies. I reached out to the NWS one time about this and they confirmed. In fact, you can see a number of examples on the link below where the 6-hour or 24-hour highs/lows don't align with the 5-minute readings. https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=Kmdt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(though admittedly, still not a true station for record keeping) At the moment, they're rocking a Dew of 61 and that's down from 62 earlier. https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KPAMARIE28?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1aUZn05v6EL1SCu83D6YWAz4KB0xPA7zBHapk7ZxcoZfWMxfMgsX9YEUY_aem_AatgGdtB3HDmy_lQiEQW3p1bDKQzlUbvSccn8VpHsQ_8zcjQ2DxBPNU21ROdUrVrozfMvldDScho9lY6LgyGK0dL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not correct. It is frequently rounded. Actually if you are saying the :56 report every day is not rounded, I am not sure about that but the other 5 min's are. I do see it says 82 at MDT for their hourly report right now. If so that would be the record. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
