Visualizing Temperature Variability with #rstats

Recently at work I have been looking at some NCDC climate data and thought that a refresh of one of my favorite posts would be something. Awhile ago when the ggridges was released I posted a little tutorial using that package to look at annual temperature trends. It has been a little while and now that I live in Chicago it is time for a refresh. I think that the previous post showed an interesting look at how the temperature changes by month/year but I think this technique could also be used to emphasize that temperature variability we originally discussed.

A good visualization always grabs my attention and draws me into articles. I am an avid follower of the Washington Post, New York Times, The Economist and a host of other websites/publications that are doing their fair share of data driven journalism. A couple weeks ago I came across a this article, Men, women, and films from 1843 Magazine which is the Economist’s lifestyle magazine. The article drew me in with the tagline “how pronounced is the gender divide on the silver screen”.
