% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 32984 % Primary Name: SANDY POINT (1) % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: MD % Latitude: 38.23330 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -75.20000 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 3.66 +/- 0.15 % # of Months: 13 % % Alternate Names: Missing Station ID - 188033 % % IDs: coop - 188033 % ghcnd - USC00188033 % ncdc - 12002360 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: d9e8adffbdd6d3f0692a7955c668ee2b % Raw Data Hash: 50f09b80a7c25ef8ac4e561c99ee303b % Adj Data Hash: 7e5dae424246c2c4834e4612286ac1c6 % % 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 1898 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.951 1.430 1898 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.427 -0.524 1898 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.790 2.403 1898 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.365 -1.792 1898 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.316 -0.741 1898 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.323 -0.347 1898 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.677 0.298 1898 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.250 0.987 1898 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 22.474 1.053 1898 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.315 0.653 1898 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.569 -1.010 1898 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.095 -0.510 1899 1 5.476 1.197 1 0 NaN NaN 3.553 0.032 1899 2 3.894 -0.814 1 0 NaN NaN -0.477 -4.428 1899 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 6.882 -0.505 1899 4 13.853 0.937 0 0 13.853 0.937 11.450 -0.707 1899 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 16.481 -0.576 1899 6 24.665 2.236 0 0 24.665 2.236 22.767 1.096 1899 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 24.112 -0.268 1899 8 25.061 0.040 0 0 25.061 0.040 23.892 -0.371 1899 9 21.447 -0.732 0 0 21.447 -0.732 20.606 -0.815 1899 10 16.677 0.257 0 0 16.677 0.257 16.343 0.681 1899 11 10.142 -1.196 0 0 10.142 -1.196 10.504 -0.076 1899 12 5.160 -1.204 0 0 5.160 -1.204 5.226 -0.379 1900 1 3.600 -0.679 0 0 3.600 -0.679 3.815 0.294 1900 2 2.103 -2.606 1 0 NaN NaN 2.623 -1.328 1900 3 6.780 -1.365 0 0 6.780 -1.365 5.254 -2.133 1900 4 11.740 -1.176 0 0 11.740 -1.176 11.686 -0.471 1900 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.100 0.044 1900 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 21.989 0.319 1900 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 25.426 1.047 1900 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 26.168 1.906 1900 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 23.661 2.240 1900 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.962 2.300 1900 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.511 1.931 1900 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.727 -0.878 1901 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.519 -0.002 1901 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -0.202 -4.153 1901 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.907 0.520 1901 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 9.868 -2.289
