Weather

•

► K-State Weather Data Library

The Weather Data Library currently has two types of weather stations – 3-meter towers, which take fewer weather variables, and mesonet (9-meter) towers, which have more weather sensors, including wind speed and direction. In addition to near real-time conditions, the WDL has historical weather records dating to 1850.

K-State Research & Extension weather stations are at the root of the Kansas Mesonet. Most of the sites are located on private lands with permission of the cooperating land owners.

► Climate Prediction Center Forecasts

The Climate Prediction Center is responsible for issuing seasonal climate-outlook maps for one to 13 months in the future. In addition, the CPC issues extended-range outlook maps and several special outlooks, such as degree day, drought and soil moisture, and a forecast for the daily ultraviolet radiation index.
