U.S. Daily Temperature Anomalies 2010-2013 is an animated map of unusually high together with depression recorded temperatures inwards the United States. The map uses CartoDB's Torque library to animate through the 4 years of temperature data.
The animated weather condition patterns which emerge on the map seem to reverberate the influence of the Westerlies on the United States. As the animation plays out at that spot appears to travel a full general due west to due east crusade of these temperature anomalies from 2010-2013.
The U.S. Daily Temperature Anomalies 2010-2013 map uses information from the U.S. Daily Temperature Anomalies 1964-2013 map. This timeline together with map plots temperature anomalies from 2,716 weather condition stations inwards the US, which convey information going dorsum l years.
Each station's daily temperature recordings convey been compared to the corresponding monthly distribution. If the temperature at the station roughshod inwards the bottom or peak 2% on a given twenty-four sixty minutes menstruation it is labelled an anomaly.
The map animates through the l years of temperature anomalies at all 2,716 weather condition stations. Warm anomalies are demonstrate on the map inwards blood-red together with mutual depression temperature anomalies are displayed amongst blueish dots. Beneath the map a graph plots the yearly proportion of warm anomalies to mutual depression temperature anomalies. The graph shows a clear tendency towards e'er increasing warm anomalies inwards the United States.
