I am wondering though. Today's temp is posted as 74.9. Mine is reading 75.0. Can someone explain the discrepancy?

Today's temp reported by the USGS WaterAlert is 23.8 degrees Celcius which converts to 74.84 Fahrenheit. I round the temperature up to the next 10th of a degree which gives me 74.9.

Beginning last Tuesday I am posting the USGS Wateralert temperature from the Weirs instead of the Dataphone temperature at the Lakeport Dam.
