New extension downloads climatological data

[Tom Keffer]

This extension downloads historical data from NOAA's ACIS repository and makes them available as a search list extension. It enables tags that can show things such as the high-low for the date. It includes a widget for the Seasons skin that looks like this:

Thousands of ACIS stations are available. Unfortunately, the extension is US only. If someone can point me in the direction of a similar European repository, I'd be delighted to support it as well.

I've tested it a bit, but I'd have to consider it "beta", at least for a while.

Tom,

The MetOffice holds similar stats for The UK.

You can find them here, station by station: -

Thanks for the tip, Ian.

I'm not seeing a way to download JSON data. There is a text file, which I could scrape, but I was hoping for something more RESTful.

Am I missing something?

Cool. The map search finds my CoCoRAHS site. How about that.

I’ll have to point the CoCoRAHS guys at Colorado State at this one.
