        @giganticvis It still depends on the demand, as I wrote about it on our blog: https://blog.windy.com/missing-historical-data-on-windy-heres-what-to-do/

          As the skipper of two vessels i regularly use the historical data to assess new anchorages when out at the reef. Please bring it back. Improve the wave data to include the shape of the reef.

              Yes, historical data is useful. I use it for route planning at sea. I do not facebook so please don't ask me to join a facebook group. Just telling you I find the historical data useful. Thank you.

                  I would love to have the historical data back on Windyty.
                  It would make Windyty the only weather site I visit.

                    680 views and only 13 replies?! Come on guys. Say something. Vote with your keyboard. I say yes please, historical data is vital in determining faults, trends and expectations in any analysis.

                        Windy[ty] is an absolute gamechanger. Have been using since first launched, and its just keeps getting better [living in equatorial lats once youve used Windyty with ECMWF data theres no going back!] thanks so much Ivo, Pavel and team!!!
                        Living with the ocean in remote SW Pacific where observed data is nonexistent or highly unreliable, hindcasting is critical to understanding how weather systems impact local conditions. Being able to step back even a few days [prior to current time] on the timeline provides the granularity that all archive subscription services over the years have failed to, being able to pull up previous seasons wind and waves at that granularity….total game changer!
                        For planning oceanographic charters months ahead, being able to access historical data in Windy's UI adds hugely useful context in predicting trough, ridge, and frontal trends, even rainfall anomalies, which are notoriously difficult to fcst here in the SPCZ. Damn handy for planning those all-too-rare kiting and surfing strike missions around Sols too ;)

                        the deeper the blue......

                                Please provide archives. If you still have an issue with storage space, maybe users can save the periods they are interested on their local machines or on the cloud drives?

                                    +1 on archive data, I probably use it more than forecast data.

                                      Possibly a stupid question - Is it an archive of the forecast or archive of actual wind that occured? If the latter, the usefulness of this feature would be tied to how often the data is collected and could make a big difference in the storage capacity required. In short, i would like to have access to historical wind data. Just found Windy.com. Best layout i have seen yet. Thanks.

                                            Please restore historical data on Windy. As a surfer, and one who lives on the beach, tracking the seasons is essential. Historical data helps lots. Best,
