Weather History - Risk Assessment

The Weather History - Risk Assessment diagrams show the probability of a specific, customisable weather event to occur for any location on Earth. The analysis is based on data since 1940. It is delivered as highcharts json and can be implemented as iframe to enable mouse-hover lines and zooming.

The diagrams are available for the following events:

Event nameDescriptionSampleThreshold parameters with sampleDefault threshold
Cold eventAnalyses events with temperatures below a defined temperature threshold&event=cold_eventMinimum temperature threshold: &threshold=0
Event duration for defined event in hours: &duration=4
<0°C for >1h/day
Warm eventAnalyses events with temperatures above a defined temperature threshold&event=warm_eventMaximum temperature threshold: &threshold=40
Event duration for defined event in hours: &duration=4
>0°C for >1h/day
Precipitation eventAnalyses precipitation events&event=precipitation_eventPrecipitation amount threshold in amount/week: &threshold=50>0mm/week
Water capacityAnalyses maximum available soil water capacities&event=soil_water_eventMaximum available soil water capacity in mm: &threshold=1000mm
Cloud cover eventAnalyses cloud cover events below a defined coverage threshold&event=cloud_cover_eventMinimum cloud cover in %: &threshold:50<0%
Wind speedAnalyses events with wind speeds above a defined threshold&event=wind_speed_eventMaximum wind speed threshold: &threshold=100
Event duration for defined event in hours: &duration=4
>0km/h for >1h/day
Wind gustAnalyses events with wind gusts above a defined threshold&event=wind_gust_eventMaximum wind speed threshold: &threshold=100
Event duration for defined event in hours: &duration=4
>0km/h for >1h/day

Weather Variable Units

The risk assessments support all common units as specified in the table below. The desired unit can be defined in the API request. If it is not defined, data will be delivered in the default unit.

Weather VariableExampleDefaultAvailable units
Temperature&temperature_units=C°CC, F
Wind speed&windspeed_units=bftm/skm/h, km/h, mph, kn, bft
Precipitation&precipitation_units=mmmmmm, inch

The API supports the following weather models:

  • ERA5T re-analysis model with data since 1949: &domain=era5t
  • NEMSGLOBAL weather model with data since 1985: &domain=nemsglobal

The diagram can be retrived in several languages (lang=en): ar, bg, cs, de, el, en, es, fr, hr, hu, it, ka, nl, pl, pt, ro, ru, sk, sl, sr, tr, uk

Climate Comparison Diagram - History

The Climate Comparison Diagram - History compares weather variables of the current season to the 30 year mean climate.

Climate Observed - Diagram

The Climate Observed - Diagram shows the annual course of temperature, precipitation amount and rainy days, as well as wind measurements from the closest weather station. The weather variables shown depend on the availability of complete and consistent measurements from measurement stations and are aggregated on a weekly or monthly basis.

Climate Comparison Diagram - Forecast

The Climate Comparison Diagram - Forecast shows the expected weather, compared to the weather of the previous 10 or more years. Thereby, you can see how "normal" the current weather is compared to the climate of this location.
