Summary

Description
English: Chart showing timeframes during which freezing temperatures are encountered, comparing data from two different years
  • Data source: Data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as presented by Calderon, Ignacio; Padilla, Ramon; Bravo, Veronica; Loehrke, Janet (22 April 2026). "Winter is shorter. See why it matters". USA Today.
  • Source states: "We analyzed data from more than 250 cities and found that all but two are experiencing fewer freezing days. ... In 1956, freezing days started on Nov. 13, on average, and ended April 14. ... Now, on average, freezing days begin 11 days later and end 26 days earlier."
  • Technical note: SVG code for the wedges was automatically generated by the "Pie charts" spreadsheet linked at User:RCraig09/Excel to XML for SVG. Additions and adjustments were made in a text editor.
