This section of the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) Web site offers the most popular items in their collection. Users can order and receive data via e-mail from the site. Data available include U.S. 30-year climate normals, daily global summaries of surface data, global storm data, subscriptions to monthly surface data, wind data for the U.S., precipitation data, climate maps, and historical weather data for specific periods of time. You will receive your order sometimes in a matter of minutes, and sometimes longer, depending on the amount of data you request. If the data set you request is very large, you will receive it on a CD-ROM via U.S. mail. NCDC is required to recover the cost of making this data available, so users who access the system from domains other than .edu are charged a nominal fee for the data.
