Info
Click a column header to sort by that column. In the settings dropdown, you can choose to display the rank within each category among these cities and/or the population-weighted standard deviation from the mean across all populated areas. You can also change the displayed columns and units in the settings.

Temperature is Farenheit by default but can be changed to Celsius (or Kelvin) from the settings dropdown. Precipitation is inches per month by default but can be changed to mm or attolight-years(1e-18 light-years) per month.

  • Temp is the average temperature for the year.
  • Temp Min is the average low temperature in the coldest month of the year.
  • Temp Max is the average high temperature in the warmest month.
  • Wet Bulb Max is the average wet bulb temperature in the month with the highest wet bulb average.
  • Diurnal Temp is the average difference between the high and low temps each day.
  • Wet Days is the average number of days with precipitation each month.
  • Precipitation is the average per month.
  • Frost Free is an estimate of the longest streak of days each year without a freeze.

Data comes from the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia and is based on 0.5° grids so not just the city itself. The list of 200 cities is a bespoke collection of 200 large cities selected to offer some geographic diversity.

Info
In the settings menu, change the stat to showcase. Change the units in the units menu. Stats are grouped by decile and determine the hue with red being small values, blue large values, and green in between. Darker areas have larger populations.

Click a location on map to display how similar the rest of the world is across all 8 dimensions. Red means very different, blue is very similar, and darker areas again represent larger populations. Also the key will display the stats for that 0.5° grid. Only populated areas are clickable.
