It would be cool if this webtag existed for the month, year and records.
Thanks.

Like <#MonthHighDailyTempRange>, <#MonthLowDailyTempRange>, <#YearHighDailyTempRange> etc?

I think he means the min-max range for the month, rather than the largest daily range in the month? But you can easily calculate this from <#MonthTempH> - <#MonthTempL> = monthly range and so on for year and all time.

... Or ....
Does he mean the temperature difference ? (still calculable by other means)

I think I understand now and I think you're both saying the same thing? The temperature ranges for the month and year, in addition to the existing temperature range for each day.

But what figures do you actually give for a month / year (minefield !)
As calendar 'ranges' they are fairly meaningless, and do you use the extremes, the averages, the averages of the extremes .....
Are they worked out from the log files or new 'storage' of realtime calculations (although of course anytime Cumulus was disconnected the first would apply from the station logger, with all the possible 'missing' values from that !)
A beteljuice experiment:

Very much incomplete and Work In Progress !!!!
