Say I wanted to get 10 years worth of ASOS data for a particular airport. Anyone know where to go?
Thanks! I thought this would be perfect. But alas, no ceiling info.the closest i have seen is (and it goes back 10+ years in some cases)

However, it will only give you one day at a time (as far as I can see).
edit if you mess with the custom tab, it will give you longer stretches of time
Thanks, Jesse. I do have some budget to pay for the data, so I'm hoping the National Climatic Data Center or something has it. I need 10 years to satisfy the FAA on a project I'm doing.I can give you back to early 2009. Not quite 10 years.
I never found a good source that didn't jack the data all up so I finally started to capture and save all the data.
There was a university web site posted here maybe 3 years ago that had historical METAR data... Lemme see if I can find it.
(sheesh)
Spike,
You're definitely quicker on the draw than me.
I also almost mis-credited it - The first post I found with the link was from Andrew Stanley, but in 2010 and I knew I'd seen it earlier... Then I saw that Kate had posted it sometime in '08, and I think that's the first time I saw it and clicked on it...
But Spike wins with the first post of that link to this board, on March 6, 2006.
So the question is, Spike... Where did you find it originally?
Thanks guys. I re-read the contract and see that I need to used "approved" data, so I'm off to spend 80 bucks with NCDC...
Yes, but I still try to keep the expenses to a minimum. Call me silly ...Not cost-plus?
