Aside from your MS Graph suggestion, the following might
be worth investigating:

+ Matplotlib: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/

+ ReportLab: http://reportlab.org/
    (see the examples: http://reportlab.org/contribs.html and
     especially http://reportlab.org/meteo.html)

+ Gnuplot: http://gnuplot-py.sourceforge.net/

Also, just Google over comp.lang.python for "graphs" (and then
exclude all that mathematical stuff about cyclic trees and edges).
