The Weather Force historic data offers a comprehensive archive of weather data spanning five years, accessible by date and hour for locations worldwide. This extensive database allows users to search weather conditions for a specific airport location or based on particular parameters such as weather condition, visibility, clouds, or winds for any chosen date and time. This data can be seamlessly injected into the simulator, providing a transformed weather experience for the selected date and time.
METAR data updates six times hourly from NOAA, providing precise details within a 1/8-mile radius. Weather Force integrates METAR and model data using advanced algorithms, extending coverage to remote areas like deserts and oceans. The GFS Model, updated twice daily by NCEP, supplies crucial upper-level temperature and wind conditions.
Weather Force's advanced technology utilizes live METAR reports to accurately simulate nearby storms by parsing remarks. Even when automated METAR reports show clear conditions, our system can generate storms near the reporting station, faithfully replicating real-world scenarios.
