Hottest day ever! Really?

A couple decade's ago they took readings at multiple area's of the city I live in and averaged them. Now readings are only taken at the local airport, where almost no one lives. Makes perfect sense.

"The current temperature is (fill the blank) degrees at the airport, which is stupid because I don't know anyone that lives at the airport."

Yeah.... the airports are good places to locate the cabinets where the weather instruments are located.
Oddly enough this guy talks shit by simple extrapolation.
Totally wrong.
