<p dir="auto">It seems that you are using an old list of Synoptic stations where some locations are inaccurate, especially for recycled SYNO numbers for which a Genots have been issued.  Please find below few station location errors I caught in eastern Canada. There's probably much more worldwide.</p>
<p dir="auto">SYNOs 71290, 71272, 71632, 71720 and 71736 are not properly attributed… they belong to stations in Manitoba, British Columbia and Alberta... that’s why you can find a huge discrepancy in Temperatures with surrounding areas on your maps</p>
<p dir="auto">71632 should be for Lynn Lake, MB (CYYL) not for Britt, ON (WBI)<br />
71272 should be for Tadoule Lake, MB (CYBQ) not for Beausoleil Island, ON<br />
71290 should be for Mackenzie Airport, BC (CYZY) not Upper Rideau Lake, ON<br />
71720 should be for Powell River, BC (CVOP), not Ste Agathe Des Monts, QC<br />
71736 should be for Pincher Creek, AB (CPCK), not Roquemaure, QC</p>
<p dir="auto">Config list for World SYNOS here seems up to date: <a href="http://27.121.95.132/jma/kishou/books/station/station.txt" rel="nofollow ugc">http://27.121.95.132/jma/kishou/books/station/station.txt</a> but I suggest you use the one on WMO-OSCAR website (formal list)<br />
