HI
a Prof. John Duffy Uof Texas (I think) used to publish
a "Temperature Bins data" for many cities this was
connected with ASHRAE In his data was the 90%.
95%,98%, 99% and I believe the record low for an area.
 The percentages were where for example 90% of the
days were warmer than this temperature.
