Short summary
Air temperature (Ta) varies substantially within cities, yet physics-based models struggle to capture this fine-scale variability. We demonstrate that a graph-based approach – leveraging spatial information from sensor networks – can significantly enhance Ta forecasting at individual locations. Furthermore, we introduce an automated framework to streamline graph construction and model implementation. This study also demonstrates the distinct spatiotemporal dynamics of intra-city Ta patterns.
