Punta Gorda high temp
I'm not surprised, but I thought that would have made the news, and I didn't find anything when I searched (not hard enough, I guess). I've gotten reflexive about unexplained, unsourced changes to climate tables. Donald Albury 14:11, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
- It's ok, I would have done the same given the situation - no worries. I was trying to find it within NWS Tampa Bay website but that's never instant. I didn't see any news about it either because this is perhaps worse than last year where we had 110+ heat index (but not actual triple digit temps). – The Grid (talk) 17:27, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
- The NWS Tampa Bay notice about the record somehow or other showed up on my Facebook feed yesterday evening. Donald Albury 15:34, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
