The mean temperature field is in the template. My question is .... why doesnt the mean temperature field automatically populate, when mean highs and lows are given?


Portland

The values for average temperature are obviously wrong, shown to highlight that they must be entered manually and are prone to user error.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Mean monthly maxima and minima (i.e. the expected highest and lowest temperature readings at any point during the year or given month) calculated based on data at said location from 1981 to 2010.
  2. ^ Official records for Portland were kept at downtown from March 1871 to 24 November 1940, and at Portland Int'l Jetport (PWM) since 25 November 1940. Temperature records are limited to the period that PWM was the official site (i.e. since 1940) and are based on the Monthly Weather Summary product issued by the NWS office in Gray, Maine.[1] precipitation and snowfall records date to 1871 and 1882, respectively.
