A season is more than a single photograph
Use the monthly temperature, rainfall and coverage evidence to plan your trip. A photograph records one moment in one place; it cannot predict the weather for your dates.
Evidence before adjectives
A clear answer,
with the workings shown.
We start from every GeoNames settlement, then keep the 1.27 million whose nearest station clears the distance, coverage and elevation checks. Every result keeps its source station, distance, period, and month-level coverage.
Choose the evidence
Nearby NOAA GHCN stations must cover every month in 1991–2020 for daily high, low, and precipitation observations.
Score your kind of trip
Comfort, beach, and outdoor scores use different temperature targets. Rain and wet days reduce the score.
Show the long record
Every page carries its station’s record highs and lows with the dates they were set, how the last fifteen years compare with 1961–1990, and a stripe per year of the full record.
Keep the caveats visible
Thin months are labelled, and a change is only shown where both periods are deep enough to compare. Climate history is not a forecast, and the nearest station may not reflect mountains or microclimates.
What is live in this MVP
Open evidence first.
In use: 2.7 billion NOAA GHCN daily observations, 1763–2026 (US federal public-domain data), against GeoNames place identity (CC BY 4.0) — 1.27 million places across 11,839 qualifying climate stations.
New England context: 5,524 Environment Agency station source records (5,523 with stable identifiers) plus its complete current-flood snapshot, both imported under OGL 3.0 and kept separate from historical climate.
Held back: accommodation, offers, and private affiliate feeds remain excluded until the relevant site and merchant publication rights are recorded.
Environment data now
History for the month.
A dated signal for today.
The climate explorer remains global and historical. England now has a separate operational layer so a current flood record is never mistaken for a monthly normal—or a zero snapshot for a safety guarantee.

Flood alerts and warnings
Complete feed state, timestamp, explicit zero and unavailable semantics.
