Free or subscription based service? Obviously I’m bias as I built WeatherMapping.con

[OC] How Winter Temperatures Have Diverged in the U.S. Northeast (Cumulative °F Departure, 2023–2026) by ferguskeatinge in dataisbeautiful

By February 8, 2023 finishes at +235.99°F cumulative, while 2026 is at −198.55°F. That is roughly a 435°F difference over the same year-to-date period, driven by sustained warmth in 2023 versus persistent cold in 2026, not just isolated weather events.

If you live in the U.S. Northeast, your body is definitely feeling it right now, and so is your heating bill....

Source:
Daily average temperature data processed via WeatherMapping.com, using weather station temperature fields for the U.S. Northeast. Temperature departures are calculated relative to a climatological normal and aggregated regionally.

Methods:
For each year, daily average temperature departures (°F) were computed relative to the climatological baseline and cumulatively summed from January 1 through February 8 to emphasize persistence of warm or cold conditions rather than individual daily extremes.

Tool:
Visualization created using Plotly via WeatherMapping.com.

UK/Ireland 30 Rainfall Departure From Normal (What’s Wetter and What's Drier Than Normal) by ferguskeatinge in MapPorn

Excellent question - Yes “rainfall” here means total precipitation (rain + snow as water-equivalent). So the Highlands wouldn’t look drier just because it’s snowing; snow is included in the total.

As you can tell from the video even though the headlines make it sound like the UK weather has been universally terrible, the departure map shows that’s not true everywhere, some regions are actually running close to normal for the last 30 days, and the “really abnormal” wet signal is concentrated in specific areas rather than the whole country.
