Guidance has run 2.9°F warm at NBG for a month
The mean signed residual across 6,804 pairs is +2.85°F, against +0.05°F averaged over all 81 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 NBG over August 30–September 29, 2026, it lands +2.85°F from the report, across 6,804 pairs — the largest standing lean of any of the 81 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.
