Industry use case
Students
Real climate data, not a screenshot of someone else's chart.
Geography, environmental science and data-science students use PastClimate to pull a clean, citable weather record for an assignment instead of hand-copying numbers off a government portal — monthly normals for any city, an hourly CSV for one specific day, and the dated extremes a good report needs.
How PastClimate helps
Assignment-ready CSV
Pull an hourly CSV for the exact day your fieldwork, survey or case study covers — clean columns, ready for a spreadsheet or notebook.
A citable data source
Every page shows the reanalysis dataset, grid resolution and years covered — the detail a methods section or bibliography needs, in plain language.
Compare cities side by side
Look up the same climate fields for as many cities as your comparative assignment needs, all from the same source and resolution.
Charts without the charting
Pre-built monthly temperature and rainfall charts you can screenshot straight into a slide deck.
