DATA SOURCE:
Climate Assessment Data Base (CADB) ~1500 stations per day. Climatologies used to calculate the anomalies were updated to use the 1991-2020 climatology dataset as of June 29, 2021.
RESOLUTION: 0.5 degree x 0.5 degree
DOMAIN: 20N - 60N; 140W - 60W
FORMAT: The format is sequential 32-bit IEEE floating point created on a big_endian platform
(e.g. cray, sun, sgi and hp). The undefined (missing) value is 9999.
WINDOW: Day 1 analysis is valid for the window from 06Z on day 0 to 06Z on day 1
ANALYSIS SCHEME: Shepard algorithm
QUALITY CONTROL: Climatological standard deviation check. If a reported value is more than 4
standard deviations removed from the historical distribution, the value is omitted from the analysis.
