 National Weather Service Temperature in Lexington @ 1:09pm on 5/6/10
86.0°F

 the direction from which the wind is blowing
speed in miles per hour refers to the amount of water vapor in the air, the amount of water vapor that the air can contain varies with air temperature and pressure The outside air temperature 71 inches above the soil in a solar shielded, vented, day time aspirated enclosure. The temperature to which air must be cooled for saturation (100% relative humidity) to occur. Heat Index uses the temperature and the relative humidity to determine how hot the air actually 'feels'. Solar radiation is measured in Watts per square meter. Ultra Violet radiation - index is scaled from 0 to 16. Evapotransporation is measured in inches. Barometric presssure corrected to sea level

This weather station is maintained by an experienced weather equipment technician.   The Lexington Co-Op Wx station has two systems; the National Weather Service equipment and a Davis & R M Young wx system.   The temperature is verified with a Taylor psychrometer.   The data reported on this site is the same as reported to NWS for official weather data archive.   The rain database (as reported on this site) is adjusted to agree with the rain amount as measured with the NWS Standard Rain Gauge.
