Inconsistent minimum temperature: lead says 49 K but infobox shows 47 K at the tropopause

The article gives two different values for Uranus's minimum atmospheric temperature that are mutually inconsistent:

  • Lead paragraph: "has the lowest minimum temperature (49 K (−224 °C; −371 °F)) of all the Solar System's planets"
  • Infobox, 0.1 bar (tropopause) temperature: min 47 K, mean 53 K, max 57 K

47 K corresponds to −226 °C, while 49 K corresponds to −224 °C. The two figures differ by 2 K. If the true minimum is 47 K (as listed in the infobox for the tropopause level), then the lead's claim of "49 K" appears to be incorrect. Conversely, if 49 K is the true minimum, then the infobox's 47 K needs revision. One of the two values should be corrected so the article is internally consistent.
