Someone boteved Melbourne's humidity values from Jan to Mar, it should be in the upper 40s during those months.

Record source is "voodoo skies" (a dead link as of 2023)

Interesting thread idea, so I revived it. Here some suspicious climate tables I found randomly by chance: 1.Boké, Guinea. Despite from a reputable source (NOAA), those high diurnal temperature ranges are a bit suspicious. By the way, the town is at 30 m in elevation, and the humidity is not super low during the winters. 2.Rome, Italy. Apparently, in French Wikipedia, Rome has suspiciously high temperatures and sunshine; while having lower precipitation. Sacre bleu!
This has been called out by Crunch41 apparently 3 years ago, but has not been fixed. Here is the table: Le Climat de Rome. Look at how hideous the data is compared to English! Compare that to this: Rome's Climate

CRISPR Kaleetan IIRC (someone could correct me if I'm wrong) the WMO 1961-1990 normals for Boké mix up monthly maxima/minima with all-time monthly maxima/minima (in other words, the "average" highs/lows = record highs/lows but monthly mean is the actual monthly mean)

Out of curiosity, I was looking at the wiki of Melbourne, Florida, aka the "other" Melbourne, and noticed this mistake in the climate section. I checked the reference and it was actually from January 24, 2003. Not the most ridiculous error, but still a bit careless.

Looking through some climates today, suspect means in Húsavík, Iceland. "Húsavík has either a warm-summer humid continental climate (Köppen: Dfb) or an oceanic climate (Köppen: Cfb) depending on the isotherm used, −3 °C (27 °F) or 0 °C (32 °F), similar to much of coastal Iceland." Ummmm OK. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%BAsav%C3%ADk#Climate
