Access 'NOAA' Climate and Weather Data

v0.1.1 · Mar 19, 2026 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Provides clean, tidy access to climate and weather data from the 'National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration' ('NOAA') via the 'National Centers for Environmental Information' ('NCEI') Data Service API <https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/services/data/v1>. Covers daily weather observations, monthly and annual summaries, and 30-year climate normals from over 100,000 stations across 180 countries. No API key is required. Dedicated functions handle the most common datasets, while a generic fetcher provides access to all 'NCEI' datasets. Station discovery functions help users find stations by location or name. Data is downloaded on first use and cached locally for subsequent calls. This package is not endorsed or certified by 'NOAA'.
