Some newspapers in their weather forecasts (or reports) use coloured bars to visualize temperatures in way which makes it easy to see relative temperatures (either of several places, or just of a single place but relative to previous days' papers). Clearly somebody involved in their production has determined appropriate lower and upper bounds for the temperature bars. Anybody wanting a web-based equivalent could do likewise. Smylers
