I would love to have access to historical weather data for aviation purposes.

I work for a charter airline that operates to destinations all over the world. We would love to have this data regarding averages for a given month. This is crucial when trying to figure out our Take-Off and Landing performance for future operations.

Whats the average high for a given month or week for a specific time during the year? What are the average winds during a specific time of day? Do we need to add a stop somewhere because recent annual trends show its going to be too warm? Or can we make a specific nonstop route because its trending cooler?

Some websites try to provide this data...most seem inconsistent. However, we would love to see this information come from Windy.

The new future is great! Thanks for the quick responses. I look forward to windy becoming better and better everyday.

Best Regards,

Hello. Yes climatology would be the correct term I am looking for. I would love for Windy to have "average highs and lows" data built in for airfields, especially under ICAO codes. Would be extremely helpful! Right now we take data off of Meteoblue. But I would like to have more accurate data taken from the history of METAR reports if it is possible.

I guess what I am looking for overall is a history of purely observational data to reference at certain airfields built into windy.

Thanks for your time.
