% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 32183 % Primary Name: CARDINAL % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: VA % Latitude: 37.41670 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -76.36670 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 3.00 +/- 0.05 % # of Months: 32 % % IDs: coop - 441383 % ghcnd - USC00441383 % ncdc - 20027067 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % US Cooperative Summary of the Month % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: 207c5038404635cebfc4b84630f86dfd % Raw Data Hash: 1b435f70c9d6ad8fe6b993bfc4ecdad9 % Adj Data Hash: 5ac38b328a3eae2415ffa00d55cf4eec % % The data for this station is presented below in several columns and in % several forms. The temperature values are reported as "raw", % "adjusted", and "regional expectation". % % The "raw" values reflect the observations as originally ingested by % the Berkeley Earth system from one or more originating archive(s). % These "raw" values may reflect the merger of more than one temperature % time series if multiple archives reported values for this location. % Alongside the raw data we have also provided a flag indicating which % values failed initial quality control checks. A further column % dates at which the raw data may be subject to continuity "breaks" % due to documented station moves (denoted "1"), prolonged measurement % gaps (denoted "2"), documented time of observation changes (denoted "3") % and other empirically determined inhomogeneities (denoted "4"). % % In many cases, raw temperature data contains a number of artifacts, % caused by issues such as typographical errors, instrumentation changes, % station moves, and urban or agricultural development near the station. % The Berkeley Earth analysis process attempts to identify and estimate % the impact of various kinds of data quality problems by comparing each % time series to neighboring series. At the end of the analysis process, % the "adjusted" data is created as an estimate of what the weather at % this location might have looked like after removing apparent biases. % This "adjusted" data will generally to be free from quality control % issues and be regionally homogeneous. Some users may find this % "adjusted" data that attempts to remove apparent biases more % suitable for their needs, while other users may prefer to work % with raw values. % % Lastly, we have provided a "regional expectation" time series, based % on the Berkeley Earth expected temperatures in the neighborhood of the % station. This incorporates information from as many weather stations as % are available for the local region surrounding this location. Note % that the regional expectation may be a systematically a bit warmer or % colder than the weather stations by a few degrees due to differences % in mean elevation and other local characteristics. % % For each temperature time series, we have also included an "anomaly" % time series that removes both the seasonality and the long-term mean. % These anomalies may provide an easier way of seeing changes through % time. % % Reported temperatures are in Celsius and reflect monthly averages. As % these files are intended to be summaries for convenience, additional % information, including more detailed flagging and metadata, may be % available in our whole data set files. % % The Berkeley Earth analysis was run on 15-Nov-2013 19:55:48 % % Raw Data QC Continuity Adjusted Data Regional Expectation % Year, Month, Temperature, Anomaly, Failed, Breaks, Temperature, Anomaly, Temperature, Anomaly 1946 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.489 -2.174 1946 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.155 0.130 1946 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.460 1.061 1946 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.836 2.880 1946 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.789 2.056 1947 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.834 3.813 1947 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.112 -3.441 1947 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.268 -3.843 1947 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.657 0.855 1947 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.943 0.247 1947 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.917 -1.011 1947 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.840 -1.432 1947 8 26.190 0.828 1 0 NaN NaN 25.646 0.983 1947 9 22.123 0.399 0 0 22.123 0.399 21.544 0.518 1947 10 18.082 2.985 0 0 18.082 2.985 17.095 2.697 1947 11 9.098 -0.556 0 0 9.098 -0.556 8.150 -0.805 1947 12 4.483 0.050 0 0 4.483 0.050 2.623 -1.110 1948 1 -0.556 -3.276 0 0 -0.556 -3.276 -1.167 -3.188 1948 2 4.556 0.527 0 0 4.556 0.527 3.207 -0.122 1948 3 10.556 1.745 0 0 10.556 1.745 10.232 2.121 1948 4 13.944 -0.557 0 0 13.944 -0.557 14.520 0.718 1948 5 19.167 -0.228 0 0 19.167 -0.228 18.557 -0.139 1948 6 23.167 -0.460 0 0 23.167 -0.460 23.052 0.124 1948 7 25.667 -0.304 0 0 25.667 -0.304 25.405 0.134 1948 8 24.000 -1.362 0 0 24.000 -1.362 24.031 -0.632 1948 9 21.000 -0.725 0 0 21.000 -0.725 20.604 -0.421 1948 10 14.056 -1.042 0 0 14.056 -1.042 12.830 -1.568 1948 11 13.056 3.401 0 0 13.056 3.401 11.866 2.910 1948 12 6.278 1.845 0 0 6.278 1.845 4.926 1.193 1949 1 7.778 5.058 0 0 7.778 5.058 6.789 4.768 1949 2 8.556 4.527 0 0 8.556 4.527 6.985 3.656 1949 3 9.333 0.523 0 0 9.333 0.523 8.831 0.720 1949 4 13.167 -1.334 0 0 13.167 -1.334 13.449 -0.353 1949 5 18.778 -0.617 0 0 18.778 -0.617 18.586 -0.110 1949 6 23.778 0.151 0 0 23.778 0.151 23.466 0.538 1949 7 27.556 1.585 0 0 27.556 1.585 26.694 1.423 1949 8 25.944 0.583 0 0 25.944 0.583 24.746 0.084 1949 9 20.556 -1.169 0 0 20.556 -1.169 19.770 -1.256 1949 10 17.833 2.736 0 0 17.833 2.736 16.454 2.056 1949 11 8.389 -1.266 0 0 8.389 -1.266 9.355 0.400 1949 12 5.056 0.623 0 0 5.056 0.623 5.056 1.323 1950 1 10.444 7.724 0 0 10.444 7.724 9.069 7.048 1950 2 5.556 1.527 0 0 5.556 1.527 3.932 0.603 1950 3 7.722 -1.088 0 0 7.722 -1.088 6.791 -1.320 1950 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.625 -1.177 1950 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.029 -0.667 1950 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.671 -0.257 1950 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.332 -0.940 1950 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.677 -0.986 1950 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.171 -0.855 1950 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.508 1.109 1950 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.904 -0.051 1950 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1.422 -2.311 1951 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.231 2.210 1951 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.948 0.618 1951 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.971 -0.140
