The popular Daymet Version 3 daily surface weather and climatological summaries have been updated to include all years 1980 - 2018 for continental North America, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii. Daymet output variables include the following parameters: minimum temperature, maximum temperature, precipitation, shortwave radiation, vapor pressure, snow water equivalent, and day length.
