Everybody below freezing
Posted: 05 Nov 2012 05:43 AM
The featured map is a simple analysis of lowest observed temperature so
far this fall season from the airport weather sensors. This map would
indicate that the entire state has seen below freezing temperatures
this fall. While some locations have barely breached 32 degrees, other
parts of the state have been well into the teens. Low temperatures are
strongly influenced by local affects and terrain, so observation
stations relatively close to each other can often report much different
temperatures. The analysis technique does not consider terrain, so the
map can have unrealistic blotches.
