Why are there discrepencies between the temperature reported by these web pages and other pages using the same data?
[TOC] The web page at http://ptavv.es.net/, for example, uses the instruments on the met tower located at 2m above the ground. Our web page https://www-metdat.llnl.gov/cgi-pub/reports/current.pl uses the instruments located at 10m above the ground, which is the regulatory standard. By using our weather reporting facility ( https://www-metdat.llnl.gov/cgi-pub/reports/report.pl ) you can view the temperature readings from the 2m package. However, there is still a discrepency between our sites of at most 1 °. This reported difference is due to rounding. Our site truncates the fractional portion of temperatures reported in the farenheit scale. The other site uses rounding.
