    How we know this

    Values are the average of the last ten calendar years of daily readings from Visual Crossing, snapped to the destination cluster. Daily spread is the width between the 10th and 90th percentiles of daily highs, not a forecast error margin. Rain days count any day with at least 1 mm of precipitation.
