You seem to be the only person who cares. If someone lives in London and records 80f, have they not actually reached 80f unless Heathrow also sees it?
No, I'm not saying temps aren't different around the city (or course they are). I'm just saying that, for the sake of consistency, all official observations (those that represent the city as a whole) need to be from the same place.
London's one of the largest cities that is frequently discussed on this forum, as a result it has a lot of stations to choose from. All are perfectly valid.
Cherrypicking a station that reaches the target first does not contradict the premise of the thread.
Chicagogeorge uses ORD, MDW and IKK (which isnt in Chicago).
