Climate comparison

Climate comparison is a project to compare climates of two chosen places on Earth.

You can see the online demo here.

It uses the temperature data from Berkeley Earth, the precipitation data from Climatic Research Unit, University of East Anglia, and the cities data from GeoNames.

Climate comparison runs on .NET Core, Azure Table Storage and React.
