How to display two readings simultaneously generated on a numerical indicator? Simple thermometer VI and boolean light?

You've got some questionable code. That bottom for loop is just silly. All that you have to do is wire the array directly to the Build Waveform. To create an array indicator, just right click on the array wire and select Create Indicator. To use numeric indicators, you simply use the Index Array function. Please take some of the free LabVIEW tutorials.

The bottom loop indexes each simulated value and outputs a WF for each reading. That part of the code is valid.

Sorry, you are right. I didn't look close enough.

That will teach you to criticize my code.

Now back to the original problem...Use an array of indicators or two indicators.

Brilliant thank you I got the dual indicator via the index array, now just to wire light indicator for average of two values! Should I use a formula node with say y = (X1 + x2)/2?? And wire to lEDS?

No.  Use the Mean.vi that is in the Mathematics->Probability & Statistics palette.  That VI takes in your array and calculates the average for you.

Ok it works perfectly now, took you're advice, thank you to everyone for their help. The only problem I have is that the alarm doesn't sound accordingly, it beeps when temperature is normal or high but not cold? Could this be to do with my comparison elements? Normal is between 16-25 but it wont beep below 16? Can't seem to resolve this?

Look closely at your comparisons and read the help on those.

Just write down exactly what you have wired and you should find your error.

Should I wire the comparisons to the mean value? and get rid of the 'And Array Elements'?
