Guidance has run 2.6°F warm at YKM for a month
The mean signed residual across 4,087 pairs is +2.64°F, against +0.03°F averaged over all 77 stations with enough samples to score. A bias is not an error the reader can ignore — it is one they can correct for.
Mean absolute error says how far the forecast lands from the observation; the signed mean says which side it lands on. At YKM over August 11–September 10, 2026, it lands +2.64°F from the report, across 4,087 pairs — the largest standing lean of any of the 77 stations currently carrying enough samples.
ASOS reports at :53 and the forecast is stamped on the hour, so a forecast is paired with the nearest observation within 30 minutes and otherwise left unscored.
