Real Weather Data

Weather data is valuable to any sim as it can allow developers or modders to implement or enhance weather features such as accurate historical weather, quasi-realistic weather scenarios, weather progression algorithms, calculating weather metrics (such as averages, medians, standard deviations, etc.), and much more, making for more immersive, varied, and interesting weather experiences.
