Emi Griffith 1720ac1da6 Lead climate page titles with the city and the payload (#188)
Search Console's first 48 hours showed city-month pages drawing impressions at
positions 44-77 and converting almost none of them: the title template spent its
width on region and country ("Average weather in London, England, United Kingdom
in July"), so Google cut it before the month a searcher was looking for.

Titles now lead with the bare city name and put the subject next, which keeps
both inside the first ~40 characters:

  London in July: normal weather & records
  London climate: daily normals, records & how unusual it is now
  London weather records: hottest & coldest days since 1980

Add cities.title_name() for the short form. 968 of the 1000 cities have a unique
name and render bare; the 32 that don't are qualified with their country code
("London, GB"). Five names — Columbus, Arlington, Aurora, Glendale, Gorakhpur —
recur *within* one country, where the country code collides too and would hand
two different pages the same title, so those fall back to admin1 ("Columbus,
Ohio"). A test asserts every rendered title is unique across the set.

Meta descriptions now lead with the page's actual numbers rather than restating
the template ("London averages highs of 73°F in July and lows of 38°F in
January."), capped at the ~155 characters a SERP shows.

The records title derives its year from the loaded history rather than a fixed
date, so it can't contradict the page. H1s, URLs, breadcrumbs and JSON-LD are
unchanged; og:title and og:description follow <title>/<meta> automatically
through base.html.j2.
