52 weather stations in Sweden report temperature observations.
Daily records of all stations for each day are converted to color and plotted on a map at the precise coordinates of the observation station.
Each daily map then becomes a frame of a video.
You can zoom in and out on all dimensions and comprehend a large amount of data that changes in time this way.

I didn't plan to do any more with weather mapping but if you are inspired to do more, or tweak this project, the existing files and tool can be provided.
If you write the algorithm to link isotherms, I would probably be inspired to implement it. If you designed cells for filling, I would most probably animate a decade just to see what it look like.
I admit to being bored of the topic now. Knowing arcane details of the biggest scam in history is interesting, but not vital.

Hi. I know this project failed to meet expectations, badly.
Isotherms might be a job to calculate which station to join with which other but I didn't try that. Better done, the stations would reveal the isotherms without calculation, I think, by color.
The next improvement that came to mind was to defne 'cells' based on the topology, for instance , a coastal station would have a cell that stopped at the cliff and expanded along the sea and coast.

Have you, or can you, or did you consider contouring isotherms to make it a little easier to visualize? Would love to see contours. It's very hard to see the changing colors of the small dots on the map.
