      Having historical data is very important for me planning for open ocean crossings so I can read what happened compared to what was forcast

          Hi, just want to check in on progress? Is this something still in the works?

          I, and I'm sure others, would be happy to pay a monthly subscription if it gave access to historic data.

            I would also be willing to pay for a subscription in order to have access to historical data. We plan lots of sailing trips along the west US coastline and it would be super useful!

              BTW, climate.gov keeps historical data all the way back to the 1950s. Could you just pull from their api instead of storing it yourself? even if it was a daily average snapped once a week, that would be useful :)

                @ivo I'd be willing to pay for a 'premium' membership which included the historical data. When it was available I found it very valuable. I'm a sailor living aboard full time and loved using the historical data to plan out months ahead for general, most likely conditions.... Thanks for all you do, love the service.

                    @ivo is there any method to download weather images hourly? may be as a paid service?

                          Any progress on Historical weather?
                          Here are my wishes.
                          Simple - 6-10 months of surface wind directions to find historical directions for sailing. Today I need Spring wind direction data to retrace a sailing path.
                          More complex: 5 years of surface wind directions to plan sailing tacks to reach upwind areas with minimum time and energy.

                              Some other climatology studies for shipping performance are available on Copernicus (more here).

                              ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                                  @amitaba Hello, we do not offer historical data in any form.

                                    First of all, thanks to your team for this super app.
                                    I just wanted to mention that it would be great to maybe just have access to historical data of the past day or so.
                                    I am often trying to evaluate which models perform best on my local spots with various wind conditions. Just being able to compare the observations with the forecast from the past 24h or so would be great.

                                      @Ludwighaffen Hello, you can already do that. Each weather station shows measured values for the past several days and you can compare them with the current forecast. You can even choose a forecast model.

                                        @ivo Hi, Dear Friend, would you be open to sending me historical wind data for Tustin/Irvine from November 7, 2023 - January 7, 2024 to soul.la.ti.do@ Berkeley dot edu?

                                          @Anne-Kim Unfortunately, it is not possible to individually provide any historical data at the moment. However, we work on certain implementation to our app.
