The measurements of the concrete state, wind speed and direction, cloud type and amount, visibility, and temperature were recorded by observation stations across the UK and transmitted within SYNOP, METAR, DLY3208, AWSHRLY and NCM messages. The sunshine duration measurements were transmitted in the HSUN3445 message. The data spans from 1875 to present. This dataset also contains data from a selection of overseas sites: SRC_ID STATION STATUS LAST DATA 1580 GUTERSLOH CLOSED 28/10/2013 13:00 1582 BRUGGEN CLOSED 29/09/2001 05:00 1584 LAARBRUCH CLOSED 14/05/1999 23:00 1585 GIBRALTAR, NORTH FRONT OPEN 03/02/2020 09:00 1588 AKROTIRI, CYPRUS OPEN 03/02/2020 09:00 1603 ASCENSION ISLAND AIRFIELD OPEN 02/02/2020 21:00 1605 BOTTOMS WOOD, ST HELENA OPEN 03/02/2020 09:00 1608 PORT STANLEY, FALKLAND IS CLOSED 31/12/1980 23:00 1609 MOUNT PLEASANT, FALKLAND IS OPEN 03/02/2020 09:00 56810 MOUNT OLYMPUS OPEN 16/04/2019 09:00 61737 MOUNT KENT, FALKLAND ISLANDS OPEN 03/02/2020 09:00 61743 MOUNT BYRON, FALKLAND ISLANDS OPEN 03/02/2020 09:00 61744 MOUNT ALICE, FALKLAND ISLANDS OPEN 02/02/2020 05:00 Met Office author 0370 900 0100 Met Office FitzRoy Road Exeter EX1 3PB enquiries@metoffice.gov.uk author NCAS British Atmospheric Data Centre (NCAS BADC) custodian +44(0)1235 446432 British Atmospheric Data Centre STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Harwell Oxford OX11 0QX UK badc@rl.ac.uk custodian NCAS British Atmospheric Data Centre (NCAS BADC) distributor +44(0)1235 446432 British Atmospheric Data Centre STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Harwell Oxford OX11 0QX UK badc@rl.ac.uk distributor Met Office principal_investigator 0370 900 0100 Met Office FitzRoy Road Exeter EX1 3PB enquiries@metoffice.gov.uk principalInvestigator NCAS British Atmospheric Data Centre (NCAS BADC) point_of_contact +44(0)1235 446432 British Atmospheric Data Centre STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Harwell Oxford OX11 0QX UK badc@rl.ac.uk pointofContact NCAS British Atmospheric Data Centre (NCAS BADC) publisher +44(0)1235 446432 British Atmospheric Data Centre STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Harwell Oxford OX11 0QX UK badc@rl.ac.uk publisher monthly dataset Met Office MIDAS UK meteorology hourly atmospheric conditions theme GEMET - INSPIRE themes, version 1.0 2008-06-01 publication otherRestrictions These data have multiple licences for different applications.
