Field notes
The lookup matches each listed place to its nearest NOAA station and uses daily observations from 2015–2024. Its criteria distinguish ordinary paint from low-temperature paint, and require a preceding dry day for a staining day. The page calls a month with 12 or more painting days “good,” while noting that station conditions may not match a particular property and that averages do not rule out a poor year.
