Hey Eric, I have 72/40 as the official high and low. Did I miss it? Maybe I'm looking at bad data?

Hi Doug, KDAY revised their high of 71 from late yesterday, when last I checked previously, from 71 to 72, so I nailed the high yesterday, Bro! 8-)

51 or 52, Bro? :) I just rechecked and yesterday's almanac data from KDAY says 52. :)

Anyway, same here, Doug, as I'm glad that I didn't wipe out yesterday after I had on Mon lol! :thumbupleft:

Hey Eric. Good evening bro! I was going by this link from the NWS website. Is this the one you use also?

Thank you, Bro, as I bookmarked that link that you posted. :thumbupleft: Good evening to you, too! 8-)

I've been going to KDAY via the Historical Weather tab via the Wx Underground site. :)

Well Eric. Your link does, indeed, show 52. Now we have to figure out which one is the more accurate website. Lol!

Lol, that's been my quandry, too. Makes it kinda rough. It is baffling as to why both those sites ILN almanac data for KDAY i.e. don't match up. ;)

Sure is, Doug, lol!

Mystifying to me that KDAY's data says 39 on one site and 41 on the other. :?

When I do the forum snowfall and 90 degree day contests, to avoid any confusion at all, I go with the Climate Report issued by the weather service. That way, you do not have some other third party website possibly misinterpreting the data. You both should decide which source will work best for this particular contest.

I think I agree with this Eric. I believe the problem we are encountering is third parties. The NWS website should be the accurate, official reading. What say you bro?
