Hi all,

Does anybody know if people have made any visualizations of average
city temperatures over the last 100 years or so.

While 100 years is too small a clip, for climate change it is supposed
to have been drastic changes.

While the best would be able to have a web-service where people could
click on a particular day and date and see what was the min. and max.
on a particular date, even a graph showing average temperature should
show some change.

The most obvious usage of this would be education and awareness if we
are indeed going towards warmer times/climate change.

There could be all sorts of comparisons done between summers, spring,
rainy season from 100 years till date.

Also maybe seeing if dates of season changed to some pattern or not.

If anyone knows of a web-service with Indian cities in public domain
(meaning not hiding between some paywall) would like to know.

Hi again,

@Thejesh, liked your visual appeal but then people end up going to the
link to figure out how things are/were.

http://thejeshgn.com/2010/08/12/i-love-blr-visualizing-bangalore-temperature/

Would it be possible for you to have that in graph formats similar to
the ones shared by Sitansu Mahapatra . And if you do that, could you
or do you know anybody else who has done something similar for Mysuru
and Ooty as well ?

I actually love Mysore and Ooty as they are a bit more milder than Bangalore.

Hence am also personally curious as to whether those two cities were
milder throughout the century or not ?

Umm... Don't we have any data before 1904 ? Maybe 18th century as well
or there simply are no records ?

Also are there any temperature data of localized places, graphs of
different cities similar to average temperatures shared for whole of
India ?

I do believe that people are more sensitised when there is such data
in a visual format of places they belong to .

An argument could be laid by a climate denier person, I could argue
that with averages taken from all over India, it is very much possible
that the upward trend maybe of some places while other places not so
much.

Hence it probably is a bit more imperative if we have more localized
temperature data sheets. Does that make more sense ?

Looking forward to know.
