Weather forecast 32% open (avg.)

Qa review- The license indicates that there is data in a machine readable format. I found the data in XML format and changed the submission.

Submission 2015-11-23: - Changed publisher to the meteorological institute, in stead of yr.no, which re-use their data. - Changed bulk-download from "Unsure" to "Yes". - Changed link to data to point to the Norwegian Meteorological Institute's web page about open data. From that page, there's links to api.met.no and yr.no for weather forecasts and to other services for bulk-downloads and historical data.

See previous comment for more details: http://global.census.okfn.org/submission/b136b239-d962-437f-9bb9-69de95a2296a#comments

Site specific forecasts for over 5,000 sites in the UK, including airports, major landmarks and beaches. Each site has the following weather forecast data available for it in 3-hourly intervals out to five days:

• Wind direction (16 point compass)
• Wind speed (mph)
• Screen temperature (degrees Celsius)
• Weather Type (weather ID)
• Visibility (code)
• Screen relative humidity (%)
• Wind gust (mph)
• Feels like temperature (degrees Celsius)
• UV Index (code)
• Precipitation Probability (%)

Met Office provides a restricted API to the forecast data. restrictions registration and used under licence. Data is provided in XML and JSON. Data is not available for bulk download.

HOWEVER the Cabinet Office provides an API to all of the data, with unlimited access: API on Azure Marketplace. The only requirement is that you register, which is reasonable when the Met Office data is about 20GB per day. Since there is no size restriction with this API, beyond technical constraints, you can easily download what you want, so that should be considered easy bulk access.

Some historic data is available for download but other historic data must be purchased.

Accessible via API

API is accessible and is Openly licensed.

The "Données de modèle atmosphérique global" includes the forecast of temperature, precipitation, and wind on a worldwide scale. Data are updated every 6 hour. It forecasts at H+102 hours. All the parameters are available here: https://donneespubliques.meteofrance.fr/client/document/description_parametres_modeles-arpege-arome-v2_184.pdf

The "Modèle Arome" gives a more precise H+42 hours forecast on these parameters for mainland France. The dataset can be dowloaded here: https://donneespubliques.meteofrance.fr/?fond=produit&id_produit=131&id_rubrique=51

Historical temperature data is collected in more than 60 meteorological weather stations, every 3 hours since 1996, and it is made available here: https://donneespubliques.meteofrance.fr/?fond=produit&id_produit=90&id_rubrique=32

Revision: just added the complementary missing information on the historical temperature data that was further added by Claire-Marie Foulquier-Gazagnes via comment.

Here (http://www.knmi.nl/nederland-nu/weer/verwachtingen) you can find 5 days forecast, including temperature, precipitation and wind direction. As for historic data, you can get it from here (http://www.knmi.nl/nederland-nu/klimatologie/daggegevens), either per station, or all stations combined for the current year. The data is in CSV format, with some headers and meta data in the beginning of the file.

FMI has decided to publish a major part of it's meteorological and oceanographic datasets as Open Data using open standard web service interfaces for geospatial data. This evolving documentation is intended to give a good head start on developing applications using weather and oceanographic data through the FMI's open data web services.

PDF describing XML service: http://www.vedur.is/media/vedurstofan/XML-thjonusta-vedurspa.pdf

The PDF is Chinese-English vocabulary form not about the data, but you can find the 7 days forecast data in XML file.

Weather forecast by locations includes: 7 days forecast of temperature, wind and precipitation updated daily with XML download

difficult access to historical climate data.

Forecast data is available at the link above.

Historical/climate data is available here: http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/datasets

There are some online and some offline data. The ones that are offline need to be ordered by mailing NCEI. All that is online can be downloaded for free but what is offline needs to be ordered and “most offline services require an additional charge." Also in order to “certify” data records in the case that they are used in court, there might be further costs.

Unsure if most of it is online but there definitely exists offline data. Here are places to look for online data: a. Dataset Gallery of NOAA; b. Quick links to many of NCEI’s datasets on weather/climate; c. Operational Climate Data Records; d. Climate Data: Dataset Discovery

Yes, openly licensed because it goes with the World Meteorological Organization Resolution, which means non-US info cannot be used for commercial use; international data can be used within the US or for noncommercial international uses without any restrictions.

There are a number of sources for these data.

The weather forecast data are available here - https://weather.gc.ca/canada_e.html

Historical climate data available here - http://climate.weather.gc.ca/links/index_e.html#tools

Archived data here - http://climate.weather.gc.ca/prods_servs/documentation_index_e.html

Customized data can be purchased for a fee.

Data do not seem to be available under an open licence, http://climate.weather.gc.ca/prods_servs/attachment1_e.html

Data is only available for 4 days and not 5 for 15 cities in Israel. There is also an Historical dataset on the government open data portal, the data there can be produce in a XLS.

Part of Met Eireann data is accessible through the Met Eireann site but in HTML only. Copyright notice on http://www.met.ie/copyright/default.asp states attribution only required however commercial use of data is prohibited.

Other data is available on https://data.gov.ie/dataset/weather-observations however this is only on a monthly basis. No licence information is provided. The direct links, again, extend out to another website, http://eca.knmi.nl/dailydata/customquery.php where data can only be downloaded on a piece by piece basis. The data on this site does not include all testing stations.

There is no machine readable daily accessible feed of data open to the public that can be found

JSON for weather forecast at http://meteo.public.lu/widget/access.php

Historical temperature data is restricted.

State Ageny of Hydrometeorology provides information on weather forecasts. A detailed version of forecasts are not free. Items listed in this lists http://meteo.kg/index.php?page=3 are provided only by paying for them. Additionally they provide information on air quality http://meteo.kg/environment_air.php, water quality http://meteo.kg/environment_water.php, radiation http://meteo.kg/index.php?page=8

Data/information service via the API

• 3 hours of detailed weather information and daily
• Information on daily and weekly weather forecast
• Weather statistics
• Weather data from automated systems.
• The information reported earthquakes in the country in Thailand and the region.

In order to view the data you have to select the city. The data can be downloaded freely in a PDF format and statistics can be viewed online as well.

Data is in pdf format and not machine readable.

Data is in html format and not machine readable.

Weekly weather forecast which includes temperature and precipitation can be found in the link above. Data is bulk, but is not in machine readable format.

The Meteorological Division is comprised of three distinct Branches, all overseen by the Director of Meteorological Services and managed by separate Branch Heads. These are the Administration and Support Services Branch, the Weather Branch and the Climate Branch.

The data is available through the URL http://www.metservice.gov.jm/climate.asp?id=3

Data is in pdf format and not machine readable.

The weather forecast are available on the website of the general direction of the weather, but the forecast are broadcast from an other website(1). According to the general direction, they are collecting data but meteorama provide better tools for broadcasting. Even if their data are not online, it can be requested for free. The Burkina Faso Open Data Initiative have funding from the world bank to work in the climate change field and they are planning to open up weather data. 1. http://www.meteorama.fr/

Full details about the dataset including charge details are at http://reg.bom.gov.au/other/charges.shtml. Historical weather data is available at http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/data-services/station-data.shtml for free.

The Trinidad & Tobago Met Office provides both forecast (3 days) information and historic weather information. Links below provide context. http://www.metoffice.gov.tt/extended-forecast http://190.58.130.190/web/daily_data/piarco.html

The SENAMHI offers a weather forecast of temperature, wind precipitation for 4 days (today + 3 days). It is non machine readable format. Data is © Copyright 2010 SENAMHI and therefore is not openly licensed.

Data online are available in .pdf, .doc, and .html formats - it is not machine readable.

Copyright © 2010 Pakistan Meteorological Department. All Rights Reserved.

The forecast is textual in HTML, and has 7 days of forecast of precipitation. Temperature can be found in a different link for 4 data - http://www.kma.go.kr/ema/ema03/ra2_eng_index.html. Data is really hard to gather or to analyse.

It was not stated that the information provided is Open License. Open Government project team initiated request to get information about weather forecast and make it machine readable.

Weather statistics per year can be seen on http://www.kazhydromet.kz/ru/inforeg/

While the data is avilable though the site, it's as images and maps and not as opendata.

4 days of precipitation and temperature.

You can access the data via a search function, which let's you see the archive in monthly increments. No download function.

There is also a weather section from DMI on the Danish national open data portal (digst.dk), but it only contains no data, only references to the DMI portal (https://digitaliser.dk/resource/666599).

Data forecast is available for 5 days, for wind, temperature and precipitation, but not in machine readable format.

But they're on Twitter ;) #fancy

As for the 5 days weather forecast, it is provided by the Saudi Presidency of Meteorology and Environment here (http://www.pme.gov.sa/w5df.asp), there is also radar readings from different stations (http://www.pme.gov.sa/Doppler.asp). The map here (http://jrcc.sa/as/) shows those stations. The forecast data includes temperature, wind speed, humidity and symbols for thunderstorms, rain and sunny, etc.

Historic data is a bit problematic here, the Saudi Open Data Portal (http://data.gov.sa/) provides datasets for temperature (http://data.gov.sa/dataset/temperature), wind (http://data.gov.sa/dataset/wind), humidity (http://data.gov.sa/dataset/relative-humidity), thunderstorms (http://data.gov.sa/dataset/thunderstorms), fog (http://data.gov.sa/dataset/fog-phenomena), etc. However, when accessed the most recent XLS files, they are of 2013.

Note, although the data on the Open Data portal is in bulk and openly licensed, that on the Presidency of Meteorology and Environment is copyrighted, and since we gave more weight to the latter as the former is not up to date. We answered the questions about licensing and machine readability according to how the information is presented in the Presidency of Meteorology and Environment

Guyana has a 3-day weather forecast and not 5

When you click on the map on the homepage here (http://www.irimo.ir/eng/index.php), it gives you 4 days forecast (including current day) for each region, but only temperatures for upcoming days, while precipitation is only expressed in terms like, Thunder Shower. Wind speed is only available for current day, as well as wind direction and humidity. Check example here (http://www.irimo.ir/eng/wd/701-Weather-Forcast-Esfahan.html?id=17556)

You can search for historic data here (http://www.irimo.ir/eng/wd/720-Products-Services.html#report_builder_form), but you have to provide date, time and station, one by one. The result include, temperature, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall and pressure. With a resolution of 3 hours for each day.

Here you can find 4 days forecast (http://www.jometeo.gov.jo/4days.aspx), however it only include temperatures, the rest is explained in text, using terms like mild wind speed and dry weather, without specifying actual numbers for wind speed and precipitation. Here is the current day's weather for the different cities, including wind speed and direction (http://www.jometeo.gov.jo/CountryWeather.aspx). And here you can request data for historical periods, and they said they will compile it based on the resolution and period you specify and be provide it via email (http://www.jometeo.gov.jo/OrderInfo.aspx), we haven't tested it though.

Central Observatory for Geophysics collects and publishes all key weather indicators online, but in an HTML webpage format.

The observational data recorded at various types of surface and upper air observatories, are scrutinised and archived at the National Data Centre, Pune. It has approximately 8 billion characters of data storage which includes ship data and rainfall data of State raingauges spanning over a century. The statistics thus compiled are periodically revised and updated. The archives form the basis for computation of means, normals, frequencies and other derived parameters, for their analysis and interpretation, and for the preparation of district and state climate summaries and atlases. It makes weather forcast for the country and upto the level of cities (http://202.54.31.7/citywx/localwx.php and http://www.indiaweather.gov.in/ - National Weather section) .

The Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications has a dedicated website for the weather in Bahrain ( http://www.bahrainweather.gov.bh/ ). The website provides a variety of weather and provides details of weather, wind, sea state, temperature and humidity for the next five days.

Directorate General of Meteorology provides a lot of climate data to the public. The website has a simple section for providing simple weather details for specific cities in Oman and shows the temperature changes for the next three days for each city. ( http://www.met.gov.om/opencms/export/sites/default/dgman/en/weather-chart/oman-cities/index.html ) The website also has a more elaborate interactive map that allows the user to overlay different weather layers and playback the predicted changes for several future days. ( http://www.met.gov.om/opencms/export/sites/default/dgman/en/weather-chart/map-data/ ) The website is difficult to navigate though and browsing by map is not intuitive and very slow. Also, the raw data does not appear to be available for download directly.

There is information about the weather forecast for five days but its not in a machine readable format. There is no historical data available in the website.

Forecasts for the Bailiwick of Guernsey are provided by the Jersey Meteorological Department to the States of Guernsey under a Service Level Agreement.

Federal Service for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring of Russia (Roshydromet) is government agency responsible to collect and provide information about meteorology in Russian Federation.

They have subsidiary enterprise "FGBU GVC Roshydromet" that maintain website www.meteoinfo.ru with infromation about weather forecast.

This information is up to date, not openly licenced, not available for bulk download, is free, is public.

For now, the RMI provides little information and only up to 36 hours in advance. There seems to be no historical temperature data.

In the nearby future, more data will be opened up since the RMI is a state owned company and thus should open it its data by default. (http://www.openknowledge.be/2015/07/24/green-light-for-the-belgian-federal-open-data-strategy/)

SMHI is an authority under the Ministry of the Environment and Energy.

Is the data available for free?: I am not sure what parts are not free, however, on this link http://opendata-catalog.smhi.se/explore/, on the upper right corner you can press "Beställningar"/Orders. Where you contact them with the sole purpose of purchasing data.

Weather forecast for the next 5 days is only available in non-machine-readable websites, both by Inmet and INPE:

• http://www.inmet.gov.br/portal/index.php?r=tempo2/previsaoPorTipo&type=capitais
• http://tempo.cptec.inpe.br/

Both have temperature and wind information but not precipitation forecasts.

Historical data is made available by Inmet in two separate ways:

1. http://www.inmet.gov.br/portal/index.php?r=bdmep/bdmep Historical data on temperature, wind and precipitation. Said to be updated daily. Data sits behind user registration and access control.

2. http://www.inmet.gov.br/portal/index.php?r=estacoes/estacoesAutomaticas Historical data on temperature, wind and precipitation from automatic weather stations. Updated hourly. Available in CSV but users have to fill in a captcha.

See Data management for some background on how data is collected and distributed at MeteoSchweiz.

The Egyptian Meteorological Authority publishes temperature readings for Egypt main cities. [http://ema.gov.eg/] It also published forecasts of temperature, humidity and wind speed for the upcoming 4 (not 5) days. [http://ema.gov.eg/pdf/4df.png]

They do not publish precipitation on the same website, but humidity instead, which I think is fine as rain is rare in most of Egypt, and precipitation is not really useful to citizens most of the time. Nevertheless, the precipitation forecast can be found on NWP website which belongs to the same authority. [http://nwp.gov.eg/index.php/wrf/preciptation]

Historical Data was not found on the website, however, it temperature, humidity and windspeed charts are found as part of the Pollution Reports published by NWP. [http://nwp.gov.eg/index.php/reports-enviromental]. It worth mentioning that this data is not available in reports since October 2014, thus we marked the dataset as not provided on a timely and up to date basis.

The information is available online but the data is not available to be re used in free formats

The weather data is available online via web link: http://weather.gov.dm/current_conditions.php.

The weather forecasts are given not of a five day forecast but a three day forecast. Information is available via telephone as a weather hotline - (767) 447 5555.

Information is updated daily or more frequently especially when there is ' severe weather conditions approaching.Radio alerts are also recived.

All information is for free except for Climate Data which has to be requested from the Meteorological office. Here is the link as to the details of the fee structure. http://weather.gov.dm/climate_data_fees.php.

The data set is available in bulk for free only to government entities and students, otherwise a fee is charged.

To access bulk data, users are provided with an online form through which they can specify the data requirements. Inform

The data exists at the "Dirección Nacional de Aeronautica Civil - Dirección de Meteorología e Hidrología" They have several types of sensors distributed in the country 1 with several types of readings 2. In the homepage of the agency 3, there is information about the current weather, and a 5-day weather forecast, in HTML format.

However, the Presidential Decree 8701/2012 establishes a payment for accessing this information. The current cost is 7,70 U$D 2 for accessing the daily registry for each parameter by month by location.

IPMA is the entity responsible for weather monitoring.

10-day forecasts are available in the Forecast page, fulfilling all requirements of this category for weather forecasts.

However, there is no apparent reference to a comprehensive historical temperature dataset. There are monthly charts/maps available, but not daily data. I've inquired on their website to see if there's anything.

The license terms forbid commercial use.

Only current data is available, and not in machine-readable format. Information going back a year is available for purchase only.

The data shall be available upon request, at this address. http://www.meteoam.it/dati_in_tempo_reale The issue is at the discretion of the service. The data can not be used for profit.

ZAMG provides this data - at the moment only as HTML and Map-based but there are intense discussions going on at the moment to provide this data as open data very soon!

An alternative are providers as Austro Control: https://www.austrocontrol.at/wetter/wetter_fuer_alle/wettervorhersage/oesterreich_3_tage or commercial platforms like http://www.wetter.at/.

The direction of meteorology said that they provide a weekly weather forecast, but the data is not available on their website.

Reviewer's note - Data is only available for three days and does not meet the criteria.

The Barbados Meteorological Services operates as a self-contained department within the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. Its basic public interest functions are funded by the Barbados Government. It gives a forecast of temperature, precipitation and wind for one day. http://www.barbadosweather.org/

http://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/ publish weather forecast of Temperature for 1 day, and precipitation forecast of a week. No wind. Data therefore is not sufficient to meet the minimum criteria.

In principle, Cameroon has an institution in charge of collecting, processing and publishing weather forecast data : The Direction of National Meteorology of the Ministry of Transport.

The website of this direction has not been updated since 2012 : http://www.meteo-cameroon.net/

This is why I choose to indicate that, from this official source, weather forecast data in non-existant, even though our national broascasting TV (Cameroon Radio and Television - CRTV) has a daily weather service. It is easy to understand that these data come from other non-official sources.

The same CRTV annouced in February 2015 that the Government has signed a contract with a Moroccan consortium to offer weather forecast service in Cameroon. http://crtv.cm/fr/latest-news/economie-3/cameroun-bientt-un-service-meteorologique--14095.htm

Das Bundesministerium für Verkehr und digitale Infrastruktur; Deutscher Wetterdienst publish historic data and current measurements.

There are 4 day maximum temperature forecasts (Example). There are no wind or precipitation forecasts.

This is a 15-day forecast of Prvidenciales weather in Turks and Caicos.

The weather forecast is found at this URL: http://www.timeanddate.com/weather/montserrat/brades

In Malaysia, the Meteorological Department is responsible for providing public information that relates to weather forecast. However, there are some loopholes found by follow the 4 criterias for this category:

1. There are 3 types of weather forecast; general, states and districts. So, the 5-days forecast of temperature updated daily for districts only.
2. Generally, there are summaries provided on strong winds and rough seas (http://www.met.gov.my/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4963). There are no 5-days forecast of wind updated daily.
3. Normally, there will be 5-days forecast of percipitation updated daily but this is only for states (http://www.met.gov.my/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1304&Itemid=1749) and districts (http://www.met.gov.my/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3406&Itemid=1930).
4. Unfortunately, there are limited historical temperature data provided. What was found from MetMalaysia website is data from 2014 until 2015. Normally, data was visualized in 4 types of figures; Rainfall Map for Malaysia, Mean Monthly Temperature, Mean Monthly Maximum Temperature & Mean Monthly Minimum Temperature. (http://www.met.gov.my/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=847&Itemid=1586)

In order for Malaysians or non-Malaysians to have access for complete data by follow these 4 criterias, the entrance fees may not required because there is Freedom of Information (FOI) Act takes place in the Selangor state territory. Therefore, it is possible for people to submit FOI request to the person in change in order to have access for the data.

Bulk and Archive data most likely available on request

The data is based on the capital city of Kingstown

The Bahamas Meteorology Department has data on their website but upon clicking each link, there are currently down at the moment.

Data exists, however it doesn't comply with all minimum requirements.

No 5 days forecast exists in China

The national direction of the weather of benin produce weather data.

The weather forecast for each day is on the official page of the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources, with a short description. I couldn't identify any database with historical temperature data.

Reviewer's note:

The data that was submitted by the original submitter was this link - http://80.78.68.65/moti/ This measure current weather but does not give projections for the future. We tried to look for alternative official source but didnt find it online. Therefore, submission was changed to NO - data does not exist.

The Dept. of Meteorology, Ministry of Water Resources & Meteorology publishes weather data at http://cambodiameteo.com. The weather forecast is visualized on a map. You can click through the map to a 3 day forecast (today + 2 days) for each city showing temperature, wind, weather and humidity. There is no precipitation forecast. (Example city forecast)

There is no archive of past weather data.

The data is not machine readable, available in bulk nor openly licensed but is up-to-date.

Five day temperature forecast is presented as images at http://www.mgm.gov.tr/tahmin/turkiye.aspx#sfU and for cities e.g. http://www.mgm.gov.tr/en-US/forecast-cities.aspx

No wind forecast data is provided. A weather condition icon is displayed but there is no precipitation data.

Official website of the Office National de la Météorologie (ONM) Link : http://www.meteo.dz/

All the data are in a non-Open Data format. Weather forecast is for 4 days and only at a country level - not by city.

A sub domain (buggy one) offers data but not useful one. Link : http://rcc-network.meteo.dz/index.php

Site is giving lots of errors. Only 2 days forecast, for temperatures only. Couldn't find historical data. See example here (http://www.meteo.sy/modules.php?op=modload&name=pages&file=view3d)

Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NMA) is responsible for the release of weather forecast for selected cities in the country via their website, but presently largely on a daily basis.

As seen from their numerical weather portal they have a plan of making it available in more days, but presently non - functional.

Sudan Meteorological Authority website has data about weather, but we could not find data about the wind, some links, like the link for 5 days forecast of temperature, is not working. Also we could not find historical data about temperature for the past year on Sudan Meteorological Authority website.(http://www.ersad.gov.sd)

Weather data is available at http://www.snet.gob.sv/ver/meteorologia.

Two day forecasts are provided as textual descriptions and an image. No historical data is available.

Some data is available for purchase http://www.snet.gob.sv/ver/snet/productos+y+servicios/

Two day forecasts are available including min, max temperature, wind speed and direction, and an icon representing precipitation (http://www.meteo.tn/htmlar/donnees/observation.php and http://www.meteo.tn/listear/previsions/previsions.php).

Historic monthly statistics are available (e.g. http://www.meteo.tn/htmlar/donnees/janv.html).

The web location http://www.meteo.gov.mk/ offers some weather forecasts, as well as wind conditions, air temperature, humidity - but it is very poorly executed and often missing data.

The site does have a page dedicated to open data in line with the initiative of the government of the Republic of Macedonia on free access to information.

Maroc Meteo (http://www.marocmeteo.ma/) provides forecast for only 2 days, with only min/max temperature (http://www.marocmeteo.ma/?q=fr/tempsprevu/villes), no wind speed or precipitation available.

Data is available for purchase but it is unclear what is provided (http://www.marocmeteo.ma/?q=fr/formulaire_acquisition).

This website (http://meteomaroc.com/) does provide 5 days forecast with temperature, wind speed and precipitation, though it is not an official governmental website, and it is not clear where it gets its data from.

The National Centre for Meteorology is affiliated with the Ministry of Transport. The website of the Libyan National Centere for Meteorology is currently down.

The National Center of Meteorology and Seismology is responsible for weather data in the UAE. It has an interactive website that allows the user to access various weather data. However, it only allows the user to display weather data for the current day and a few previous days.

Monthly statistical history is available per station (e.g. http://www.ncms.ae/en/climate-reports-yearly.html?id=102)

The Meteorological Department of the Lebanese Directorate General of Civil Aviation publishes daily weather forecast in the form of a widget here (http://www.dgca.gov.lb/index.php/en/meteo-en), however, wind speed is only available for the current day, and we could not find historical data. Precipitation is not available, only equivalent icons and humidity is shown for the current day only.

The Kosovo Ministry of Environment and Spatial Planning has responsibility for the Hydrometeorology Institute. No data is available online.

Iraqi Meteorological Organization (http://meteoseism.gov.iq/) is part of the Ministry of Transportation. On the home page, there is a map for stations and when you click on one it gives you a two day forecast.

An example forecast is at http://meteoseism.gov.iq/index.php?name=Pages&op=page&pid=118. No precipitation data nor wind speed shown, only wind direction. A separate page for precipitation here (http://meteoseism.gov.iq/index.php?name=Pages&op=page&pid=155), but it only shows one day.

Historical statistical data has not been updated since March 2015, http://meteoseism.gov.iq/index.php?name=Pages&op=page&pid=169. No data for more recent months.

Although Guinea's Direction Nationale de la Météorologie is listed as a member of the World Meteorological Organization the link provided and other web searches resulted in finding no evidence that the data is available online.

The existing official data from Tanzania Meteorological Agency does not include all these items and it is not updated daily.

Gastão de Sousa is the Minister of Public Works, Transport and Communications. One of his job scope:

maintain and develop the national systems of weather and seismological information and monitoring, including the construction and maintenance of its infrastructure, and promote and coordinate scientific research and technological development in the fields of civilian land, air and maritime transport

The generic information is found from the official website Government of Timor-Leste. However, there is no dedicated website under the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communications. Therefore, it does not meet the criteria mentioned above.
