But if it's pissing you off so much I'll use mean.

The WMO uses electronic sensors that are calibrated to 120W/m2. The UKMO used to use and in some cases still uses CS, but Heathrow has been using KZ electronic sensor since 2005. Kew Gardens still uses CS, but it's burn threshold is actually around 139.5W/m2. After looking at some months on the historic data page, some summer sunshine totals have been revised downward by 15-16%, and winter totals by 9-10%.

When you use the average high as the "average" (which is the mean really) you are lying about your climate. You may as well use the average low as the average too, would be just as accurate.

Lying???????? goodness . There is a difference between average high and low people know that. But mean does make more sense come to think of it if your describing a month that as a whole.

You have an obvious bias towards your climate and it shows in your posts. And when you call the average high as the "average" it is completely wrong. Someone who's a so called "weather geek" should know this. It's like me saying my average temperature in January is 59 F. Which is obviously wrong.

LOL I know I do Raleigh is a beautiful climate to me not as perfect as I want it but beautiful. Yeah I guess I'll use mean and average high/ low instead of one or the other, would describe the climate better.
