Nice puzzle! The yellow odd/even was very hard for me to see… might be just my phone brightness though.
Author reply: Noted! I used them because I wanted them to be clearly distinct from the thermometers.

Edited final stage of the puzzle for an easier solve, and to make the puzzle more clear.

The final bit of this puzzle might be a bit tricky! Please let me know if it is. I might edit this puzzle if enough people comment on it.
