Where can I download precipitation data?

A precipitation data legend file can be downloaded at https://water.weather.gov/precip/archive/nws_precip_legend.avl.

How do I get temp data from NOAA?

Where can I find this information? Check out NCEI’s station locator at: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/datatools/findstation or the Historical Observing Metadata Repository (HOMR) at NCEI at: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/homr/.

Where can I find weather datasets?

Atmosphere & Weather

  • NOAA OneStop.
  • EARTHDATA.
  • UNIDATA.
  • Met Office Hadley Centre Observations Datasets.
  • Goddard Institute for Space Studies Surface Temperature Analysis.
  • National Centers for Environmental Information Data Access (NOAA)
  • Climate Data Online: Text & Map Search (NOAA National Climatic Data Center)

Which one is the most reliable data source to measure precipitation?

Precipitation radar data are the most accurate space- or ground-based rain measurements.

How do you collect precipitation data?

Rainfall data generally are collected using electronic data loggers that measure the rainfall in 0.01- inch increments every 15 minutes using either a tipping-bucket rain gage or a collection well gage. Twenty- four hour rainfall totals are tabulated and presented.

Is there any free weather API?

OpenWeatherMap



The OpenWeatherMap API currently provides a wide variety of weather data including (but not limited to) current weather, forecasts, historical, weather stations, and weather alerts.
 

Is data from NOAA free?

Will the public have to pay for data that is currently accessible to them free of charge? No. NOAA’s data will remain free and available to the public without restriction on use, including through existing NOAA portals.
 

How do we collect temperature data?

Today’s temperature data come from many sources, including more than 32,000 land weather stations, weather balloons, radar, ships and buoys, satellites, and volunteer weather watchers.
 

Is NOAA data accurate?

Yes, we can trust NOAA’s Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN) data for three key reasons: NOAA uses quality control measures to ensure the temperature data are of the highest quality and accuracy for research purposes.
 

How do I download precipitation data from cmip6 data?

The complete archive of CMIP6 output is made available for search and download via any one of the following portals: USA, PCMDI/LLNL (California) – https://esgf-node.llnl.gov/search/cmip6/ France, IPSL – https://esgf-node.ipsl.upmc.fr/search/cmip6-ipsl/ Germany, DKRZ – https://esgf-data.dkrz.de/search/cmip6-dkrz/
 

How do I download rain data in Excel?

Welcome to Defra Data Services Forum



  1. From the DSP homepage select “App Gallery” then “Rainfall Demonstrator”
  2. Search for stations by station ID, or enter a postcode in the search box – A list of stations will appear, select the relevant station ID (you can select more than one).

How do I download NOAA data?

Downloading weather from NOAA website



Select Weather Observation Type/Dataset and select Daily Summaries. Select Date Range using the calendar button (Be sure to get daily weather data for 365/366 days of the year). Search for and choose the appropriate search type you will be using (typically we select Stations).
