Regional Deviation Charts
The Regional Deviation Charts show how much temperatures differed from normal in the year prior to
July 1, 2013, for major regions of the world and globally. The charts have averaged out short-
term weather fluctuations to show regionally averaged 2-week and 3-month deviations
from normal temperatures.
Here for example is the chart for the "Global" region, i.e., for the entire world.

Airport Temperature and Deviation
These sample Airport Temperature and Deviation Charts show how temperatures in the two weeks prior to July 1, 2013,
compared throughout the day to normal and extreme temperatures. The charts represent airport
locations throughout the world. Airport charts for the entire year July 1, 2012 to July 1, 2013 were used
in constructing the regional and global deviation charts. Here is an example for Washington, DC.
