For 1 May-30 September, for each year from 1980 to 1996, Environment Canada provided hourly values of air temperature and dewpoint temperature from the weather station at the Toronto Pearson International Airport in Etobicoke, which is located approximately 15 km from downtown Toronto. The DM70 can measure pressurized processes up to 300 psig with an accuracy of +/- 2 degrees C for dewpoint temperatures down to -60 degrees C. |
