My chimney-mounted weather station has been >34.5 since 1:20PM, while the Ottawa airport has been about 0.5-1.0 degrees cooler. On very still, sunny, and hot days, it can read a bit high, but there is a good breeze today.

The difference is probably because the airport station is standard sited in the middle of >1000 sq ft. of grass, at a height of 1.25-2m, while mine is about 8ft above a roof.

Or microclimate factors. The other personal stations around Barrhaven are all reading 35-38.

around here, decent amount of open fields and built up suburban areas.

Around the airport are a lot of forests, particularly to the south, from where the wind is blowing today. There is still green in the grass at the airport. Not for much longer tho.

now down to 34.3, cloud passing, sun getting lower, etc. Won't be breaking the 2025 high of 35.8 set on June 23.
