Also, theoretically, I could see the location of the asos at EWR adding a little bit to the temps but it's representative of where millions of people live (next to blacktop and the "concrete jungle" of nenj and nyc).
I respect the Mount Holly mets but I don't think they're using all the information available. In the end, our discussion isn't all that important but I still want accuracy.
It does bother me greatly that NYC's climate statistics have been severely compromised for such a long period of time.
