The skins show lists of weather data and summaries that are called "NOAA reports". I still wonder where the definition of that tables comes from. If I search the Internet for NOAA reports, I always find tables consisting of 23 numbered columns, that are not identical with the NOAA reports of the skins.

Could someone explain the background to me? I am curious.

Inherited from wview --- the formatting is almost identical. Where Mark Teel got it from, I have no idea.

I’ve wondered this myself at times. Interestingly, both WeatherDisplay and Cumulus provide near identical reports.
Purely supposition on my behalf but I wonder if maybe the month report is loosley based on this on the first page of the following link:

All the reports at NOAA I found in the Internet follow that template exactly. There were even some that had sunset and sunrise filled in only and nothing else, but they had all the 23 columns.

Thanks John - I poked around a bit and there are some samples in https://www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/cdo/samples/ for the various formats.   Very government(ish) reading the documentation in https://www1.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/cdo/documentation/

I didn't see one that looks like the NOAA charts from wview/weewx but you can see some of the lineage in the various samples.
