Re: Heat island

Message from Alan in Memphis z8

Sounds like you might need to reposition the thermometer, man. You have to look all the way down to Brownsville or east to New Orleans to see 55F right now.

Memphis has a decent heat island too. But it's only good for 4-5F tops on windless nights. I would be suspect of any thermometer not immediately on a large lake that had a 15F advantage over nearby weather stations. Have you got it up attached on a southwall or something?
