I get excited about weather-related things due to my atmospheric science background so I'm thoroughly enjoying the development of your project.
In particular, your summary slides and the use of graphs is highly interpretable. Also, in your code, you organized your changes/implementations by each observation you made which is a manner that I will likely adopt in the future!
I saw that temperature and dew point were both correlated to higher levels of crime, however, this is redundant because the higher the temp, the higher the dew point. (the more moisture it takes for the air to be saturated and for water to condense).
I commend you for choosing this topic because the number of variables that play a role on whether or not a crime is committed at a particular time is seemingly unlimited, and attributing it to timing, or weather seems an uphill battle. However, you did the process justice. For a follow up project maybe only focus on timing of crimes as it provided more solid relationships. Great work!
