As a reminder, I’m doing a row a day with the row colour based on the average temperature for the 24-hour period. Here is my colour chart for reference:

May is definitely the most drastic change month over month.

The coolest part is seeing the transition of the seasons. Of course, how it looks depends on your colour selection, but I’ve been lucky so far to have all the colours represent the season pretty well. Here’s a breakdown of the sections of blanket, month over month:
