Service Description:
This tile layer was created for a Story Map titled "Historic summer heat in the U.S."

This tile layer covers North America in extent and has rendered GHCN-D data for the U.S.. Specifically, the GHCN-D data were provided for use and show the record maximum high temperature for the summer season (June 21 - September 22).  

This tile layer is based on NOAA's Global Historical Climatology Network -Daily data. The length of station histories varies, but all stations have, at minimum, data for the period 1981-2010 (the current U.S. Climate Normals period). All have been subjected to a common suite of quality assurance reviews. For stations that are still operating, the analysis covers observations through summer 2016. Analysis provided by Jared Rennie, Cooperative Institute for Climate and Satellites - North Carolina.
