What was the temperature over the last few weeks? Tables of daily weather observations can answer these common questions. Select a station of interest and order the observation records you need. Where do these data come from? The Global Historical Climatology Network includes daily observations from automated and human-facilitated weather stations across the United States and around the world. The GHCN-Daily dataset includes observations from World Meteorological Organization, Cooperative, and CoCoRaHS networks. If observed, each station dataset includes daily max and minimum temperatures, total precipitation, snowfall, and depth of snow on ground. What can I do with these data? Check records of past weather: explore how hot or cold it got through the week, how much rain or snow/sleet/hail fell, and how deep any snow was on the ground. Check what the weather was like on specific dates in history: did a snowstorm affect voter turnout on an election day? what was the weather on dates that are important to you?
