        @ivo Is there no historical data for 2015? The calendar shows the days but no forecast data is displayed before Jan. 1, 2016.

                Hey, it is possible to retrieve historical data from 2016 onwards. Is there a way to download this data as a ".dat" file for a particular location?

                    I am slightly confused about access to historical data. Viewing the GA version of your site via FireFox for Windows, i can see the last 12 months of wind data through Tools. When I look at your beta version, I do not see an option for viewing historical wind data. Will the version currently in beta have the ability to view historical data once its released for GA?

                                  what would it take to get historical data? I think that is probably the most interesting aspect of the map. forecasts tend to be only as good as the model's best guess.

                                  if historical data were implemented, it would also be really cool to access some of that data by code. essentially, what I'm saying is perhaps eventually the model could be cloudsourced the researchers interested in that. I'm not totally sure how it could work, but it would be cool to research that and allow a community to grow around the forecasting models.

                                  cheers,

                                      @ivo In a day where you can buy a 4 TB USB flash stick there's not enough data?? WindyTy's appeal is nearly 50% due to the ability to view historical data. That is now gone. Unfortunate.

                                        @jimmyray1972 Historical data uses less than 0.5% of our users.

                                          @ivo It is a pity because historical data a really useful for deciding on sailing routes!

                                            @ivo Even after 1/1/2017, I was able to find data of 2 or 3 weeks ago. Today I try again and it was not possible anymore just clicking in Latter on time line. Is there other way I can find this recent data (max 1 month ago)?
