Frankfurt weather reports and daily highs since 2020
Reconstruct Frankfurt weather, report by report. This dataset pairs weather reports from Frankfurt Airport since 2020 with daily highs and lows calculated from the reports. Use it to study past conditions at the airport or evaluate daily temperature forecasts.
Coverage
- Window: 2020-01-01 to the most recent completed day, refreshed each morning. Report times are UTC. The calendar date is on Central European Time (UTC+1) all year, no daylight saving shift, so each calendar day spans 24 hours.
- Grain: one row per report. 117,227 reports over 2,443 days from 2020-01-01 to 2026-09-08 at the first build. Routine METAR reports arrive about hourly. Special SPECI reports arrive when conditions change. A typical month holds 1,295 to 1,583 rows.
- Cadence: one new day of reports each morning. Reported daily highs and lows are final after the last report for each calendar date.
- Station: Frankfurt Airport, ICAO code EDDF, the station whose reports settle daily temperature questions for Frankfurt.
Columns

Missing values
Absent fields are null, never zero. A trace of precipitation is null. Unreported sky layers are null. The derived daily range is null only on a day with no parsable temperature.
