Purpose

Used to create climate charts, with average monthly minimum and maximum temperatures. More information on the interpretation of the chart can be found here.

Units

In articles where SI units (°C, mm) are preferred, input the data in those units. This is the default state - no further parameters are needed. In articles where imperial units (°F, inches) are preferred, input data in those units and specify the parameter units=imperial (see below). This parameter must be used so that the units are labeled correctly and so the conversion is done properly.

Usage

argument 1
Appears in the heading
arguments 2-37
The data. Think of it as 12 rows, one for each month, with 3 columns for minimum temperature, maximum temperature and precipitation.
float
left, right or none.
clear
left, right, both or none.
source
Supply the source of your data
