Tempestries are created in specific colors that represent high temperatures each day for a year. Multiple works are displayed together to show change over time.
The Shoreline Tempestry Project spans the years 1950 to 2021. Patterns were created from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) data for Seattle-Tacoma Airport data.
20 Tempestries will hang in the lobby of Shoreline City Hall, 17500 Midvale Avenue N, from April 20 through July 15, 2022.
