From the dawn of industrialization to today, the average global temperature has shifted upward by ~2.7 degrees Fahrenheit (~1.5 degrees Celsius) due to increased greenhouse gas emissions. If emissions are left unchecked and temperatures continue to rise at their current (or projected) rate, then this will lead to drastic shifts in regional climate. For example, today's annual average temperature in Ohio will increase to that of today's annual temperature in Texas in Y years.

This project explores and analyzes geographical climate change data in the contiguous United States from 1950 to the current year. The objective is to predict regional features, e.g., temperature, precipitation, snowfall, etc., for a given year based on historical data, i.e., if I want to live in an area Y years from now that has roughly the same temperature or climate as region X today, where would I go?
