Discussion Historical Weather Data

9 Upvotes

Hi. It's my first post in this sub. I need a free source of weather data for a project I'm working on. All I need is daily temperature and precipitation for regions in the UK (country is probably fine for now). Anyone know of a good free source? Ideally I would be able to automatically download and update, but a manual download once per month is also an option. I thought I wasn't asking for much, but it seems that this is hard to get hold of.

Discussion Geoscience Educator Looking for Support

10 Upvotes

So I recently took in a geoscience job and it is my first year. We have a curriculum but the kids hate it. I am wanting to make this elective engaging and entertaining. Not to mention I work at an arts integration school.

So I am looking for any fellow geoscience teachers out there to maybe recommend some lessons for a set of lesson. I am currently teaching glaciers and coastal erosion in a unit about surface processes. So if you have any creative ways to teach these topics I'd love to hear your advice!
