temperature records
Documented thermal highs
Temperature records are documented measurements of atmospheric heat over time, used to track weather patterns and climate change.
They include daily highs and lows, monthly averages, and historical extremes for a given location: The city broke temperature records three times this summer.
Climate scientists rely on temperature records spanning decades or centuries to identify long-term trends.
