Albany Airport 9741 maximum temperature audit

At Albany Airport 9741 from 12 April 1965 to September 1972, whole .0 Fahrenheit degrees represented 16.6% of all maximum temperatures recorded.

1965-1972 represented 17% of the time span and had 10% of .0C and 7% of .5C maximum temperatures within the entire temperature record.

From 1972-2011, maximum temperature recordings of .0 Celsius degrees represented 11.1% of the total and .5C recordings represented 9.7% of the total of all fractions since 1972. Together, .0C and .5C represented 20.8% of all maximum temperatures recorded since metrication.
