https://www.howhotwillitget.com, I made an overview of future climate scenarios of each country worldwide with the latest predictions by the World Bank, maybe this is what you are looking for. :)

This is great work and you are to be commended, but I'm not quite sure what to make of the data... I live in a part of the USA that has been above 100F for the past week and will be again over the next few days (we got a brief respite overnight and today). When I look at the national average of the US in your tool though... it would actually be a slight improvement over my area if those were the averages. As I scanned through a couple countries at random, there were several where I thought "gee, that wouldn't be terrible." So, I don't know if sub-country data is available, but it might make it a bit more real, at least for countries that span large geographic areas.

Thanks for the constructive critic! It's the thing I hear often, the data source works with averages, but I believe I should mail them to get more of an understanding.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Thanks for sharing it, have a tip jar? You might also consider posting it as a Show HN post [1].

Thank you very much! Please consider donating the tip you meant to give to this Dutch environmental organization: "https://milieudefensie.nl/actie/doneer." They are the ones who brought the case against Shell in court, forcing the company to actively reduce its emissions by 2030.

Regarding posting it on Show HN: I attempted it but received no responses; nonetheless, I will try again with a better UI/UX someday, as there can be some improvement for our crowd over here. If anyone is willing to help expand the platform, feel free to message me on Twitter.

This is great! FYI you've got Summer and Winter swapped on the Australia page, and presumably all other Southern Hemisphere countries.
