What kind of Chart would you use?

[Dimster]

I want to create a chart that visually demonstrates the effects of various activities on a main event. For example if the main event is Forest Fire and the activities are temperature, wind speed, precipitation and density, what kind of chart would you use to display all this information. I've been looking at bar charts, pie charts and a scatter charts but none of them appeal to me. Do you guys use charts and if so would you recommend it?
