Methodology & sources
Vilnius
Temperature & precipitation — 1991–2020 normals computed from 19 years of daily observations at Vilnius, a weather station, about 13 km from the city centre. The underlying daily records come from NOAA's global station network.
Cloud, humidity, wind & sunshine — modelled estimates from NASA POWER, NASA's satellite-and-reanalysis climatology. This is the standard global source for atmospheric variables, which are not measured at most weather stations.
Minneapolis
Temperature & precipitation — the official 1991–2020 climate normals from NOAA's U.S. Climate Normals, measured at ST Paul Dwtn AP (NOAA GHCN station USW00014927), about 17 km from the city centre.
