Description

The global temperature time series provides time series charts using station based observations of daily temperature. These charts provide information about the observations compared to the derived daily normal temperature for various time scales (30, 90, 365 days). Each station has a graphic that contains three charts. The first chart in the graphic is a time series in the format of a line graph, representing the daily average temperatures compared to the expected daily normal temperatures. The second chart is a bar graph displaying daily departures from normal, including a line depicting the mean departure for the period. The third chart is a time series of the observed daily maximum and minimum temperatures. The graphics are updated daily and the graphics reflect the updated observations including the latest daily data available. The available graphics are rotated, meaning that only the most recently created graphics are available. Previously made graphics are not archived.
