Method and limitations
View methodology
References are selected for continuity, completeness, altitude and editorial representativeness. An island may require more than one station.
Anomalies are only shown above the conservative coverage threshold and with a comparable daily normal.
Reference normal period: 1991–2020.
An observed series is not called a trend until homogeneity, relocations and instrument changes have been assessed.
