Maximum Temperature
The plot above displaying the maximum temperature and city latitude shows that the temperature is significantly lower near the poles. Furthermore, there are outliers between 20° and 40° as well as a few below the graph's arc between -40° and 0°. If we hover over some of the outliers we can see the name of the countries which have maximum temperatures outside of the normal curve distribution. Upon hovering over the data points, and after some research, the tallest point (largest temperature) happens to be a city located in a desert, called Adrar. The lowest point comes from the city Leh which is in the snowy Himalayan mountains.
Another interesting observation is that there is a dip in temperatures above the curve, almost as if resembling the top half of a person's lips. Also, the temperature variations are not symmetric with respect to the equator (the vertical line with points to 0. This is a really cool feature which we can see because it indicates that currently the northern hemisphere of Earth is experiencing summer!
