  1. Temp determinations • Daily mean temp • Average of max and min reading • Daily temp range • Subtract min from max • Monthly mean temp • Average of daily mean temps • Annual temp range • Max/min of the monthly means • Annual mean temp • Average of monthly mean temp • Mean monthly temp • The mean of each month over some period • Climatology 30-years
