where can I download the weather data?
Is it free or available if I sign up?
- roter 3y agoIf I read correctly, they are using the ERA5 dataset [0]. It is freely available and can be downloaded through a Python API called cdsapi.

- PolarizedPoutin 3y agoThe data is publicly available! The data is freely available from the Climate Change Service [1] which has a nice API but download speeds can be a bit slow. You'll have to sign up for this. NCAR's Research Data Archive [2] provides some of the data (as pre-generated NetCDF files) but at higher download speeds. No signup necessary. It's not super well documented but I hosted the Python scripts I used to download the data on the accompanying GitHub repository [3].
