Accessing weather station data used to mean digging through National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s own tools—like the Climate Data Online (CDO) search—or fetching data via their FTP server or AWS Open Data.

  • NOAA’s CDO search can be slow and manual.

  • Users need to find the weather station closest to their location of interest themselves, often first identifying the latitude and longitude of that location.

  • The FTP and AWS options require coding skills and careful parsing of raw files.

  • You still have to check which stations are active and updated.


With Kumo, all that complexity disappears. You can now tap into data from 3,000+ active US weather stations—sourced directly from the NOAA — just by asking in plain English.

Do you need observed weather data for your analysis? Just ask:
