WeatherSpark combines two of our favorite topics (data visualization and climate/weather) in one very compelling package. A few quick and interesting things to do with it in under 5 minutes:
- Check out predicted cyclicality of temperatures over the 24 hour cycle
- Note the difference between observed weather (black line in the past) versus predicted
- Check out weather at different physical locations (close to / far from coast; east of / west of mountains; north / south; etc.)
- Play around with the other, less intuitive variables (pressure, humidity...)
- Do 1. 2. and 3. together to detect rural vs. urban heat island effects (particularly cool)
