Abstract

The cost of paid observers and inconvenience to voluntary observers brings into question the necessity for climate observations on weekends and public holidays. Proper interpretation of extreme or accumulated values, carried through to observations on the next workday, shows negligible effect on derived characteristics compared with regular daily observations. Statistical methods are given for parameter estimation, where some of the values are specified as data bounds. Monthly characteristics are estimated for a 123‐year rainfall record and 59‐year temperature record to validate the procedures.
