Official daily normals are calculated by the National Climatic Data Center using a linear interpolation of the monthly normals.
Since the daily normals do not account for daily climate variability, the State Climate Office of North Carolina provides a daily normal
'range' that incorporates the historical variations in climate for any given day. More details on this technique are available

Variability. Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, Vol. 87, pp 769-774.
