The latter. Wunderground (which uses :54 past the hour updates) shows our max for July as 74.

That's because they don't grab the in between obs and they don't go back and fix any errors and they don't reply back when asked a question. I don't ever bother clicking that site, ever. Their Hurricane page seems good to use though.


June 23rd, LEX hit 75 at 6:05pm


July 6th LEX hit 75 at 12:15pm


July 8th LEX hit 75 at 11:05am

It's the best layout IMO.

When a max or min temp occurs between hours, Wunderground records that as the high/low anyway. But for dewpoints they only consider hourly OBS. I wonder why that is.

Certainly. There seems to be an extra "oomph" to the humidity when the DP is above 76 F compared to say, 73 F or 74 F.


Looks your dew points are on an upward trend.
