The SREW41 collective issued hourly by the Met Office is a collection of hourly rainfall totals from numerous sites across the UK, including Shap. Only available on a subscription basis, though. It costs me something like £500 per annum but I use the data for work purposes. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. http://peakdistrictweather.org Norman I'm getting confused here - I thought I'd fired that question at Dick Lovett - you don't have another alias do you! I wrote an application to display and graph data from SREW41 before I took early retirement, and have been fighting a losing battle to free-up data like that and SFERICs ever since. I think it contained a lot more than the 158 UK SYNOP stations, but not the hourly totals from the EA gauge network, which is of course, not freely distributed either. I suppose that £500 annual subscription they levy for it, means that they'll never free it up either, which is a great pity. Bruce. They say that the data are 'free'. The fee is a data handling charge. The data are delivered via push FTP. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. http://peakdistrictweather.org |

Dick Lovett Dick Where did you get a 1500 UTC total for Shap from? It couldn't be from it's SYNOP because they only report rainfall at main hours. Bruce. I got the figure by adding up the hourly totals that are available via Meteogroup's Weathercast 'Weather stations' page. That's very clever - and it doesn't cost £500 a year! That is excellent. I didn't know those obs were there. Unfortunately, when I need the data it's usually for some time a few years in the past. The Weathercast site doesn't help with that! I get enough use out of the data to justify the £500 per year subscription but it would obviously be out of the question for 'recreational' use. -- Norman Lynagh Tideswell, Derbyshire 303m a.s.l. http://peakdistrictweather.org |
