<h2>How the grades work</h2>
|
|
<p>Every grade is <b>relative to this place's own climate history</b>, not an absolute
|
|
temperature. For each day Thermograph builds a ±7-day seasonal distribution from
|
|
decades of local records, then reports the <b>percentile</b> where the day falls in it.</p>
|
|
<p>So a 60° day can be “Above Normal” in one place or season and
|
|
“Below Normal” in another. That's why the categories read
|
|
“Above/Below Normal”, “High/Low”, and “Near Record”,
|
|
never “hot” or “cold”.</p>

wind-chill low) sits further from a temperate baseline, graded against its own history.</dd>

the longer it's been dry, and resets to blue on a rain day.</dd>
