Part infographic and part diary, the weather radials project tracks the weather for every day in 2013.
German designer Timm Kekeritz created an innovative way to visualize the weather we lived through in 2013. Ana Swanson describes his creation, weather radials, as maps of the weather with "365 lines, each representing one day of the year, arranged clockwise in chronological order. The lines run from the daily low to the daily high temperature; the closer the line is to the center of the circle, the colder the temperature of the day. The color represents the daily mean temperature, while precipitation is represented as a larger blue circle that surrounds the temperature line."
The project includes Seattle, Chicago, Toronto, Washington D.C., New York City, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Austin, and Miami among cities from around the world.
