Beautifully formatted, completely pointless observations. Values are deterministic for the current UTC hour: two callers, one number. If NOAA tracked pigeon suspicion, it would look like this.

Methodology

  1. All series are hashed from the UTC calendar date and hour. The station does not consult sensors, satellites, or feelings.
  2. Confidence is also hashed. It is printed to two decimals so as to resemble a measurement.
  3. CORS is *. Cache-Control is public, max-age=60. Neither fact improves the data.
