Subject: Soliciting Comments through November 2, 2024 on the
Discontinuation of the Max/Min Temperature and Precipitation Table

The Max/Min Temperature and Precipitation Table Product (RTP) is a text
product providing the maximum/minimum temperatures and precipitation
totals for a sub-state region, an entire state, or a multi-state region.
The RTP table is used by national centers and local media. Weather
Forecast Offices (WFOs), in coordination with their local users and
Regional Headquarters, will determine the regional extent of this product
and which WFOs will issue sub-state, multi-state, or state product(s).

The information contained in the RTP duplicates information contained in
other text products as well as various websites and NWS application
programming interfaces (API).

Offices and states for which Regional Max/Min Temperature and
Precipitation (RTP) Products are proposed to be discontinued:
