Update yearly average temperature #262

Closed muhashi closed 2 months ago

Hi there :)

The dataset used for average yearly temperature on Wikipedia was updated recently, as there were many countries missing and some countries had inaccurate temperatures listed (Myanmar's temperature listed as 13.05ºC, should be around 23ºC). These issues extend to datasets here, as well as some major countries like Russia and Netherlands missing temperatures.

I have a JSON file with the new values on Wikipedia, which is retrieved from World Bank, and is also more recent than the previous data.

If you are happy with this, I can make a PR to update values for average yearly temperature dataset and also fill in missing values :)
