You could at least count on the highs being somewhat right, even that is out of bounds now. I was sending them screenshots of what the station was doing between 3-5 PM in the summer months and they basically told me to shove it. The station is above 5 runways, how that can be taken as seriously is beyond my comprehension, but then you take politics into the equation, and its hard to rule it out.

I'm in the northern suburbs and it's constantly 5° sometimes 6° colder than the airport when I check at night.

GSP and a smaller Downtown airport for GVL proper is less than 8 miles from each other,
Yet it's routine that GSP the more rural Airport is 3-8° cooler every night..
2-5° cooler in the Daytime...
Before GVL built up around that airport it was almost identical.
Heat islands are real.

They do the same thing at the Newark Airport. Always reads too high.

Yes, and the runways are constant. You can look in the air and see as far as the eye can see planes coming in and going out. It doesn't stop. Maybe I should put my station in the living room, maybe it would be more accurate like KATL.

KPDK is very reliable still, and its still inside 285. Thats why I showed the comparison between there and GSP, almost identical.

KPDK (15 miles north)
58.3 36.8

Fulton County (5 miles north)
59.5 37.3

KATL
60.3 41.5
