My partner and I finally have all of our planning ironed out and did the math so we could get all of the yarn we needed while most of it was over 50% off, so stoked to get started on this journey!

OP, good luck!. Your color choices look great! This turned into a several year commitment for me. I'm 30 rows away from finishing my 2021 blanket. So much tendonitis. I used Lion Brand Hometown yarn. Color code:
102+ Red Tampa Spice
96-101 Syracuse Orange
90-95 Madison Mustard
84-89 Houston Cream
76-83 Oklahoma city Green
69-75 Key Largo Tweed
60-68 Washington Denim
59 and below San Diego Blue

I made a spreadsheet of previous years temperatures and played with the color ranges in hopes I would end up with interesting color variations.
I have to upload my photos to a free image hosting site then screenshot them there to share here since my phone camera is too high res to upload here. Hope you get it finished without too much pain!
That looks so freaking dope!!! What stitch did you use?
Knit 112 times each row :) i know it's not technically crochet but ive been working on this beast for years and really wanted to share.
I've crocheted plenty but my wrist can no longer tolerate any significant project.
