Where the figures come from

Turin has no rain gauge within 25 km of the centre, so its rainfall comes from a gridded climate dataset read at the city rather than from a gauge further away.

Temperature and rainfall are climate normals, averaged over the years shown. Tangier: 1991-2020 normals, Tanger Aerodrome (9.5 km from centre). Turin: 1991-2020 normals, Torino / Caselle (15.4 km from centre).
