Climograph

http://www.uwsp.edu/geo/faculty/ritter/glossary/A_D/climograph.html
A climograph is a graphical juxtaposition of the monthly precipitation, compared to the temperature, for a specific place for the time period of one year. Precipitation is represented by a bar graph, while temperature is represented by a line graph. It is a quick and easy way to visualize the climate for a particular location.
The climograph above shows the 2006 contrast between precipitation and temperature for Memphis, TN.
