7 About the Data: The temperature and precipitation data from Durant USDA are from the National Weather Service Cooperative Observer station, which records daily maximum and minimum temperatures, precipitation, and snowfall. The station has been in operation since 1901, yielding a 103-year series of data. Extremes, frost and freeze data, and growing season lengths were determined using the entire 103-year series. The means for temperature, precipitation, and snowfall were determined using a subset of the series, from , corresponding with official national standards set by the National Climatic Data Center. Wind and humidity data are compiled from the Oklahoma Mesonet station at Durant (6 miles south-southeast of town), which has been operational since The Durant Mesonet site was chosen because it is the only Mesonet site in Bryan County. The Oklahoma Mesonet is a cooperative project between Oklahoma State University and The University of Oklahoma. Data are collected and archived at the Oklahoma Climatological Survey. The Mesonet records a variety of weather information at 5-minute intervals throughout the day, with at least one reporting station in every county in Oklahoma. For more information on the Mesonet, see Solar radiation (sunshine) data were obtained from the Climatic Atlas of the United States, U.S. Department of Commerce, Severe storm information is available from the National Climatic Data Center, under Weather/Climate Events: Climatology & Extreme Events, U.S. Storm Events Database. The best site for online county tornado information for Oklahoma is through the National Weather Service, Norman Office, The tables and summary were prepared by the Oklahoma Climatological Survey.

If you cannot find what you need here, or want some help interpreting what this means for your particular needs, please contact: The Oklahoma Climatological Survey 100 E. Boyd Street, Suite 1210 Norman, OK Phone: ocs@ou.edu In addition to maintaining records of all weather and climate information for Oklahoma, OCS has a staff of climatologists who specialize in tailoring information for particular needs. Whether you want to know how dry it has been or are planning a construction project, OCS can help.
