70-F-Map

Map by reddit user Climatologist49

The map above shows a potential 9,125 mile (14,685 km) road trip around the United States that would maintain a constant 70°F (21°C) normal daytime high temperature outside.

The data source used was the NCEI 1981-2010 climate normal database from the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), formerly the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC).

The route starts in Brownsville, Texas (near the US-Mexican border) and ends in San Diego (also near the US-Mexico border).

And if you’re wondering wondering why the route spends 3 months in Colorado, it’s because it’s because the Rocky mountains are one of the few places in the United States where it doesn’t routinely go well above 70°F in the summer.

To learn more about climate and temperature have a look at the books below.
