We each have a preferred ambient temperature for maximum comfort. Let's use data (specifically, National Climatic Data Center) to find the ideal location in the world that provides that environment.
Well, it's more complicated than that. We have to consider daily maximums and minimums, as well as deviation of daily temperature from your ideal. But you get the idea. Read the code for the gory details!
This is nice, but as an American I unfortunately have no strong sense of what celsius temps feel like. Could you tweak it to have a toggle for Fahrenheit?
Very neat. It should also include humidity. For me it recommends the tropics, but I believe it's quite humid there, so my max temperature would probably be lower. Maybe there is a data source for wet bulb temperatures that you could use?
