In this video I will show you how to download FREE daily weather data from over 120,000 stations worldwide. The data is called the Global Historical Climatology Network – Daily which abbreviates to GHCND and it is hosted by the National Centers for Environmental Information, which is part of NOAA. The available data includes daily temperatures, precipitation and snow data. I’m going to show you four different methods to find the stations and download the data:
