National Climate Data Center

The National Climate Data Center (NCDC) is a part of the National Centers for Environmental Information that collects, maintains, and provides access to extensive climate and weather data for the United States and worldwide. It gathers information from various sources like weather stations, satellites, and ships to analyze long-term climate patterns, track changes, and support research. This data helps governments, scientists, and the public understand climate trends, prepare for weather-related events, and inform policy decisions aimed at managing climate change and environmental health.
