Variables
Date
  • Label: Date
  • Definition: Date on which data collection is occurring.
  • Type: Date/time
  • Date format: YYYY-MM-DD
  • Missing values: None specified
Time
  • Label: Time
  • Definition: Time at which data collection began, recorded in 24-hour time. Time was not recorded prior to 2017-10-01.
  • Type: Date/time
  • Date format: hh:mm
  • Missing values:
    • NA = Attribute was not collected on this date.
Max_Temperature
  • Label: Maximum Air Temperature
  • Definition: Maximum air temperature reached over the previous 24 hours. Measured by National Weather Service liquid-in-glass thermometers at Weather Service shelter to the nearest degree. When specified in flags and notes, temperature records were supplied with data logged by an iButton Thermochron in the Weather Service Shelter, by the UV-B temperature sensor in the UV Field, or using historic temperature data from the Pellston Regional Airport of Emmet County. Temperature values recorded in the UV Field were multiplied by a correction factor (.882 for max temps and .847 for min temps) calculated by BVK in June 2016.

  • Minimum: -6
  • Precision: 1
  • Missing values:
    • NA = Attribute was not collected on this date.
Min_Temperature
  • Label: Minimum Air Temperature
  • Definition: Minimum air temperature reached over the last 24 hours. Measured by National Weather Service liquid-in-glass thermometers at Weather Service shelter to the nearest degree. When specified in flags and notes, temperature records were supplied with data logged by an iButton Thermochron in the Weather Service Shelter, by the UV-B temperature sensor in the UV Field, or using historic temperature data from the Pellston Regional Airport of Emmet County. Temperature values recorded in the UV Field were multiplied by a correction factor (.882 for max temps and .847 for min temps) calculated by BVK in June 2016.
