What is included?
Daily difference statistics, coverage and quality counts for all 70 retained station histories, plus nationwide and map summaries. 68 stations qualify for completed-year peer rankings. Duplicate Salt Lake City #80 is excluded.
No original forecast data is distributed. This edition omits forecast temperatures, hourly pairs, prediction/reference IDs, forecast bundles and reading-level audit records, including raw examples embedded in the originating outlier report. The day inspector uses aggregate means and counts.
The published statistics preserve the full source summaries; dates are not randomly sampled or invented. Mean differences compare forecasts with stored near-term forecasts, not observations.

Every station
Each file contains daily aggregates grouped by forecast lead, quality and common-hour cohort, plus calendar-hour coverage. The pair count describes inputs summarized, not individual records included in this download.
JSON.gz files are losslessly gzip-compressed; decompress with an archive utility to read the JSON. The interactive charts load each selected station on demand and decompress it automatically in a current browser. Local collection dates follow the station’s timezone.
