High Quality weather station audit

Marble Bar Comparison 4020 raw temperature audit

Station opened 9 February 1901 audit to 22 August 2006

(See also Marble Bar 4106)


Marble Bar Comparison 4020 maximum temperature audit


At Marble Bar Comparison 4020 from 9 February 1901 to September 1972, whole .0 Fahrenheit degrees represented 34.5% of all maximum temperatures recorded and .5 Fahrenheit degrees represented 6% of all maximum temperatures recorded.


1901-1972 represented 67.9% of the time span and had 49.2% of .0C and 21.6% of .5C maximum temperatures within the entire temperature record.


From 1972-2006, maximum temperature recordings of .0 Celsius degrees represented 20.6% of the total and .5C recordings represented 15.2% of the total of all fractions since 1972. Together, .0C and .5C represented 35.8% of all maximum temperatures recorded since metrication.

Marble Bar Comparison 4020 minimum temperature audit


At Marble Bar Comparison 4020 from 10 February 1901 to September 1972, whole .0 Fahrenheit degrees represented 39% of all minimum temperatures recorded and .5 Fahrenheit degrees represented 4.4% of all minimum temperatures recorded.


1901-1972 represented 67.9% of the time span and had 51.2% of .0C and 15.8% of .5C minimum temperatures within the entire temperature record.


From 1972-2006, minimum temperature recordings of .0 Celsius degrees represented 19.9% of the total and .5C recordings represented 17.2% of the total of all fractions since 1972. Together, .0C and .5C represented 37% of all minimum temperatures recorded since metrication.
