Temperature, humidity and ball in play time at 2018 FIFA #WorldCup after 20 games

The data and the RCode I used are available on GitHub. This post is another learning out loud approach to my use of R and RStudio.

These ggplots are created with secondary data. As with all my World Cup posts, I am mindful that I have not investigated the validity and reliability of these data. I do make some basic face validity assumptions about these data.
