Export of weather history

You can request hourly historical weather data for over 70 years deep for any location. It includes 19 weather parameters.

Features of History Data

  • You can select which weather parameters you want to get: temperature, precipitation, wind and others.
  • You can select your location on the map or input a location name in search.
  • You can also configure units of measurement and output file formats (CSV or JSON).
  • You can choose to get data from multiple locations in a single file or in an archive with separate files for each location.

Note

Please contact us when requesting data for a large number of locations or large time ranges.
