Split the pipeline documentation by purpose so each fact has one home: - docs/pipeline-plan.md keeps the plan, checklist, tracker, and guardrails - docs/decisions.md holds open decisions and the dated decision log - docs/reviews/ holds findings and tasks: one file per filter, plus 00-cross-filter.md for findings that span filters - scripts/common/README.md holds the shared-helper rules (formerly Phase 2) - filter-calculations.md now describes calculations only Filed findings 12-22 from a consistency audit of the app, docs, and scripts. Filter 1 (Köppen-Geiger): use "Köppen" with the umlaut in all prose, labels, docstrings, help text, and checker messages (finding 21), and correct the base build's "majority" docstring (finding 22). Filter 2 (annual avg temperature): record the adopted definition in filter-calculations.md §2: equally weighted 1991-2020 monthly normals, per WMO-No. 1203 and NOAA's 2020 methodology; area-weighted county means; blank unless all 12 months exist. Code changes for this filter are still pending. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Filter 5: 90 °F+ heat-index days
|
|
|
|
**Status:** Not started.
|
|
|
|
**Data keys:** `humidHeatDays`, with the audit columns `humidHeatSourceFips`
|
|
and `humidHeatFipsAdjustment`. Calculation:
|
|
[filter-calculations.md](../filter-calculations.md) §5.
|
|
|
|
## Findings
|
|
|
|
**7. Heat Index days are a daily-extrema proxy.** Daily Tmax and daily minimum
|
|
relative humidity are paired even though their observation times may differ.
|
|
The result should not be described as an observed hourly maximum Heat Index.
|
|
|
|
**8. Heat-year completeness is permissive.** Any year with at least one valid
|
|
Tmax/RH pair is included in the equal-year average. A minimum valid-day rule
|
|
would reduce low-biased partial-year counts.
|
|
|
|
Cross-filter findings that affect this filter, in
|
|
[00-cross-filter.md](00-cross-filter.md): 12 (Alaska and Hawaii not covered)
|
|
and 13 (Lexington, VA uses Rockbridge County as a proxy).
|
|
|
