It’s just a country that contains both Alaska and Death Valley. I kind of wish the globe had been evenly divided, so we could see what regions actually have the highest variability. The way it currently is, all the big countries with mixed climates have the highest swings, which provides no real information.

I guess it's easier to find datatables by country than by geolocation.

Absolutely, that’s why I only kind of wish this was like that. It’d be a huge amount of data to process, but it would actually be useful.
