Licence | These normals are calculated at weather stations and are limited in their applicability at locations in between stations as distance from the station increases horizontally and vertically. |
Lineage | The Monthly Normals are generated from Global Historical Climatology Network Monthly V.4 and Daily V.3 using Fortran software routines developed for the 1981-2010 normals production and updated for technical improvements. |
