9. How to Make a Climate Graph:
1. Plot the data on RAIN (precipitation, shown in inches) as a bar graph by month.
2. Plot the data on TEMP (temperature in degrees Fahrenheit [F]) as a line graph by month.
3. Analyze the two graphs to describe the climates in these two locations.
- What are the seasons like? When is it
hot? When is it cooler?
- When is it wet? When is it dry?
- What hemisphere is this graph
representing? What type of climate?
Can you make an educated guess of
which city the climograph has been
created for?
