Weather for specific date? [closed]

Question

Is there any weather api that supports query weather for a specific date(or date range)?

In my application, i need to show weather for today but last year. I can store weather in DB for aech day since now, and next year i'll be able to show last year's data. But it's not "sexy" solutions.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

You could try Wolfram Alpha for Developers: http://www.wolframalpha.com/developers.html

Hokum

I just tried that, what an awesome suggestion. Works for dates waaay back in the past (i.e. 25+ years) – Econah

Wolfram Alpha is not really ready yet, but it is quite nice. Try searching for the weather in Amsterdam on Barack Obama's birthday :) – Hokum

Excellent! I hope it can translate its results to different languages. Have to look deeper into it. – Brecciate

There's something called the

• National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD) Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) Web Service
