The popular Daymet Version 3 daily surface meteorology data have been updated to include all years 1980 - 2016 for 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.
Daymet: Daily Surface Weather Data on a 1-km Grid for North America, Version 3
Daymet data are provided as individual files, by variable and year, at a 1-km x 1-km spatial resolution and a daily temporal resolution. Data are in a Lambert Conformal Conic projection for North America and are distributed in a netCDF file (version 1.6) format compliant to Climate and Forecast (CF) metadata conventions.
Annual and monthly climatology summary data are also available:
Daymet: Monthly Climate Summaries on a 1-km Grid for North America, Version 3
Daymet: Annual Climate Summaries on a 1-km Grid for North America, Version 3
Data quality and uncertainty information for each 2-degree tile are also provided:
Daymet: Annual Tile Summary Cross-Validation Statistics for North America, Version 3
Daymet data are also accessible through a variety of tools and formats listed at https://daymet.ornl.gov.
