[Geysers] Temperature at OF

[carolyn loren]

The webcam temperature reading is not at all reliable.  Saturday's high was 34.  One thing:  the webcam can be in full sun during a good part of the day.  I haven't followed this closely, but it seems folks have gotten a kick out of absurdly low temps too on some days.  
 
Don't trust the webcam for that; check NOAA or something.

An open question out of curiosity, aimed really at the NPS people. Today, Saturday 2/17, just after noon, the Webcam said the temperature at Old Faithful was about +48. At the same time, Accuweather said the temperature in West Yellowstone was +12. I can't imagine that big a difference. so what was the temp at Of (approximately, anyhow)? In other words, how accurate is the Webcam temperature reading?
