where can I find past weather, temperature records?

Question

I want to compare temperatures for past years in the st louis area, for example: 2010 temperatures every single day highs and lows NOT RECORD HIGHS, nor record breakers, but every high and low temps of a peticular year, to do a study of when the last day it was 90 degrees for a peticular year, then 80 degrees, and so on.

I called the weather office, and they just told me go to the web page weather.com/lsx, and click on climate, but I have been all over that web site, and all i can find is precipitation records, and all time highs and lows. Again I am looking for a database with every single day, highs and lows.

Thanks

You can view past weather at Wunderground's History page http://www.wunderground.com/history



Just type in the location and select the dates.



You can also view past weather data at the National Climatic Data Center http://lwf.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/climatedata.html

I live within walking distance of the Pacific Ocean, and I have lived here when the alarmists/leftists were proclaiming global cooling. Over 30 years ago they started chanting global warming and predicted that where I live would have a serious rise in ocean levels, flooding lowlands, that would happen within twenty year or less. That was 25 years ago and I'm still waiting. Nothing has changed, not the ocean level, not the water temperature. The state climatologist, George Taylor, exposed the scam, and he is a real scientist, not a politician. The state governor read Taylor's report, and fired him, or tried to. Taylor wasn't politically correct. Also, I studied Earth Science in college as a minor. Also, I'm not new to science; I've spent my live working in Science and Technology. All my friends are scientists or technologists. So, don't repeat Al Gore's lies to me. This climate change hoax runs along leftist political lines, and it is fed by liars and morons. Believe it!

Try here: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/climate/index.php?wfo=lsx



Once there, click on Preliminary Monthly Climate Data (CF6). Then St Louis for Location. Then click the Archived Data button and select the desired month. Then click Go and a table showing the various daily weather data should pop up.



Those go back to about 2007. You can go here to access data before then: http://www.wunderground.com/history/airport/KSTL/2012/8/4/MonthlyHistory.html

No need to muck around at Weather Underground.



Daily climatological data for St. Louis is published by the NWS as

PRELIMINARY LOCAL CLIMATOLOGICAL DATA (WS FORM: F-6)

The PREVIOUS VERSION link goes all the way back to 09/2007.
