The international airports in Charleston, Savannah, New Orleans, Memphis did not report an 80+ dewpoint this summer. That shading seems unrealistically broad.

Quick check I see Savannah got to 79F 7/21/15 so maybe they did hit 80 with another source?
And yeah, its hard to color a map when we dont have enough data to plot..especially if you dont know the area.
I'd love to live in the 5000+ zone, which probably exists somewhere in Siberia (maybe). I think (based on the video below) that Islip got around 1000 this season, which is better than the 1980-2014 average of 300 from that map.
Anyways, I was curious as to how it's calculated. It's explained in the video below, but the point system seems kind of arbitrary. It's mainly based on max temp, min temp, snow fall, and snow depth for each day. Too lazy to watch entire thing.

Interesting. Thanks! I will take a look tomorrow as I was curious myself
Wow to that video!! Nice find! I need to find time to watch it all. Damn. And yeah, our previous winter was definitely more severe than normal..in fact near extreme but in comparison it was like northern New England. Which I can get used to. lol

Here's the same average map but shaded.
Does he have the Summer severity index?
