The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the surface temperatures of different types of flooring materials. Our observations suggest that the variation in surface temperature is related to the weather conditions of the day. We are attempting to identify this relationship and have found that when the temperature difference is around 10℃, there are more clouds in the sky compared to when the temperature difference is greater than 15℃. Therefore, we want to examine whether it is possible to determine the cloud cover of the day based on the magnitude of temperature difference in the daily data.
