Yes cities have an atmosphere of their own, and many temperatures are taken at airports with acres of tarmac heating the air.
And tons of concrete that absorb heat during the day and release it during the night.
Average temperature of the day is degrees higher than the surrounding area.
In Washington, DC, temperatures are taken at the airport next to the Potomac River’s breezes, and are often at odds with the warmer temperatures downtown or in the poorer sections of the city.
Meanwhile, I wish we would hear/learn more about the effects of the Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption that sent huge quantities of water into our upper atmosphere. How much of it is still up there, and how fast is it coming down and becoming part of the current weather conditions, especially rainfall? Yes, desert cities in the middle east and even our own Las Vegas have occasional very heavy rainfall, but it does seem there have been some unusually heavy rains/flooding in a number of places the past two year. Even Russia has just had major flooding which broke a dam recently.
