- More information - now includes daylight, sunrise, and sunset
- Improved charts - better location names and readability
- Data tables - The data in the charts is also shown in tables
- Accessibility - every location has its own page, no JavaScript required
We've taken a massive amount of tabular climate data for more than 10,000 locations and turned it into charts.
The charts make it easy to see:

About Climate
Put simply, climate is the average of weather over many years. See Wikipedia for a good overview. I also recommend the Köppen climate classification Wikipedia topic, which emphasizes how climate affects vegetation. and thus agriculture and human culture.

Global Warming
As thirty year averages, these charts don't say anything about global warming. You would need to compare these temperatures to some other earlier or later period to see a trend. See Wikipedia for a good overview of this topic.
