I would think that it's accurate.

I've experienced a heat burst before - temperature rose somewhere around 10-15C, between about 2:00am and 4:00am, after much warmer temperatures and thunderstorms further south.

But in this case the whole change and back was within 20 minutes

Seems to be plenty of evidence supporting it.

Better have more than one station to back it up though.

OK, the officials even explain the reason for it, so I am convinced

So much for climate change being beneficial to the far northern latitudes of planet earth

Warm and dry today in Fort Worth Texas, with little or no rain for potentially the next several days to a week. Utqiagvik Alaska has had 26 days so far this season with highs at or above 50 degrees, I wonder if that number is anywhere near a record warm streak since Utqiagvik only typically sees 24 such days in an average year and the national weather service is forecasting several more days at or above 50 degrees for Utqiagvik Alaska.

Wildfires arent bad for nature really, just bad for people building houses in areas with a lot of fuel for them.

They do produce lots of gases that don't exactly help the atmosphere.
