July 2011 At The West Lafayette COOP

July finished with an average temperature of 78.6º at the WL COOP. So where does it rank on the all-time list?

-Data since 1901
-missing data from 1948 to 1953

1) 83.7º - 1936
2) 82.4º - 1934
3) 81.1º - 1901
4) 80.5º - 1921 and 1931
5) 80.4º - 1916
6) 79.5º - 1933
7) 79.1º - 1919 and 1935
8) 78.6º - 2011

One forecast period ends, another begins. I added an average temperature to the forecasts (average of all 5 forecasts) to see how well it does.
