Data source & coverage — ERA5 reanalysis, 2016–2025 (10 years)details
Source
ERA5 reanalysis, accessed via the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) Climate Data Store
Data type
Reanalysis — a physically consistent reconstruction combining a forecast model with historical observations, not a live station reading or a forecast
Coverage
2016–2025 (10 years) for United States
Location
Dalton — 34.750°, -85.000°, ERA5 grid cell center, 3.5 km from requested point
Time zone
America/New_York
What's shown here
The hourly and daily record for 17 August 2017 specifically — not a monthly average. See the Dalton climate overview for typical conditions.
Spatial resolution
0.25° (~25 km) distributed grid — ERA5's native model resolution is finer; this is the publicly distributed regridded product
Version / refreshed
Methodology v2026.07 · data last refreshed December 31, 2025
Limitations
A model reconstruction, not a station observation — hyper-local extremes (a single storm cell, an urban heat pocket) can differ from a nearby gauge. See the full methodology.
