It's inspired by the New York Times weather chart shown here. And it shows daily minima and maxima, the proper band in the context of their normal range, dark gray and of their records, light gray. We will again use Pasadena as an example, but you can do your own city, if it's included in the NOAA data set. Remember, we want to show Records, which means that we need all the data we can get. The Gateway, the module, that's a query for one year of data at a time. So, we'll call it repeatedly collecting the results in a comprehension and feeding that to NumPy vstack, which makes a two-dimensional array formally so one-dimensional arrays. The result can be visualized with matchshow. We've added also a colored bar to provide a reference of the…
