@JaydonShawwx We use the COOP site for unofficial records in El Dorado. However, the COOP site also recorded a high of 97 which appears to not only be a daily record high, but also an all time record high for the month of March. Records (albeit somewhat incomplete) go back to 1893.

Isn’t this a record? @NWSWichita (KEQA)
