TheClimateChanger Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago 5 minutes ago, Bubbler86 said: That is not correct. It is frequently rounded. You can keep saying it but you're wrong. The 2:56 pm observation is a METAR report, not a raw 5-minute report [which are reported every five minutes beginning at the top of the hour]. The raw readings are based on the temperature rounded to the nearest degree Celsius, and then converted to Fahrenheit, which is why they can vary +/- 1F from what is reported. METAR observations, on the other hand, report the temperature to the nearest decimal degree Celsius. In this case, the actual [non-rounded] temperature is 27.8C, which converts to 82F. If you still want to persist in your folly, I will bet you $1,000,000 that the high for the day at MDT is at least 82F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were saying all the reports were metar. I corrected it before your reply so your internet tough guy routine did not gauge my correction though I did not mean to sound harsh in my response, you did not explain your assertion very well to pinpoint the time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reviewing everything, I think he is right. I did not know the :56 readings were not rounded. With that said, I would gladly have paid $100 to have MDT come in at 81 for the day. A profit of $999,000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, there must be another poster from Marysville! My forecast for the Winter has not yet been issued… But, I like this wild insider info for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
