In a country as large as the US, there's likely to be records set
*somewhere* every day - especially where the station has a short record.

It's not how large the US is, but how many weather
stations it has producing data records. Otherwise,
you have a very good point Paul, a very good point.

Even in a single location with a 25 year record (like my own), I get a
new record daily high/low max/min about once a week - this year 21
highs/13 lows.
