Averages and Extremes Historical Data PlotsOver the next month, there will be changes made in our observation procedures due to budget cuts. The actual observations will continue but some of the services will be dropped or simplified. The first change has already been made in the switch to this new web page, simplifying the housekeeping on our end. In the near future, the voicemail recording will be discontinued. Some forms on this page may change as well. Two new links are added to provide you with the latest hourly data at Willard Airport and at our automated station here at the Survey.
