Do you know where I could find UK monthly rainfall data for as many gauges as possible? I am interested in the rainfall daily sum, within one month.

I found this: https://data.gov.uk/dataset/historic-monthly-meteorological-station-data

but there are only 37 gauges. Do people know of any resource for the same data but for more gauges?

  • Are you specifically interested in rain gauge daily readings or are looking for continuous interpolated surfaces?

    I assume you're familiar with ncdc.noaa.gov/isd and ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/ghcn/daily ?

  • @philshem SE frowns on link-only answers, but if you or someone else wants to post it, that's fine with me.

The Integrated Surface Database (ISD) consists of global hourly and synoptic observations compiled from numerous sources into a single common ASCII format and common data model.

And the data
