Extremes

I’ve added another viewer, to the ever expanding list of viewers that I’ve developed over the years, to the application I use to visualise data from the daily Central England Temperature series. This one finds all the daily extreme warmest and coldest daily temperatures, highest maximum, lowest minimum, the highest minimum and the lowest maximum etc etc. As you can see in the screenshot above it consists of three data grids with a matrix of months and days to display the year the extreme occurred (left-hand grid), along with the actual value (centre grid), and the resulting anomaly (right-hand grid). In the above example I’ve highlighted in yellow any records that occurred in this decade (2020-2024) which is quite remarkable as they are still a full five years to go before it ends.

I’ve also added functionality to generate a simple animated GIF of the results in a single image.
