Data Sources
Our weather information is collected from a variety of public domain sources, including the National Climatic Data Center. At WeatherbaseSM, we've gone a step further, "normalizing" the data to make it uniform and associating each of our locations with the nearest city or town. You will find no confusing weather station information on WeatherbaseSM.

Our weather glossary includes more than 500 common and uncommon weather terms. The glossary was compiled from a variety of sources, including the National Weather Service's Monterey Bay office and the TAMMI definitions server. You'll find our glossary to be an easy-to-use compilation of these sources.
