I am looking for historical highs and lows, as well as precipitation records for at least the last 5-10 years for north carolina. I found WeatherUndergrounds future, where you can scroll through and see what they guess it will be like in May or June, with record lows and highs for that day, but no date on when those occurred.

I'm really just trying to find some trends.....Nothing crazy

I hate to say it, but NOAA has reports going back to the late 1800's. Can probably find them on their site. If you can believe them.

Re: I'm trying to find weather information, mostly historical.
I'll check more into that later. I was really trying to find graphs, or maybe I can just take the raw data I do find and make my own. I was trying to visualize it in a way that would make sense to me, either bars or lines or something of that nature, scatter plot what have you, layered over various years for comparison.

This way, I can find historic last frost dates, predicted last frost dates, and combine it with my very specific last frost dates (recorded by my arduino) and make my own projections.

I like to grow food, but perhaps more importantly I am a very avid beekeeper, so I pay close attention to bloom dates, which are sometimes messed up by a freak frost, and cold snaps also alter how I operate the apiary, so I'm trying to get educated guesses in the now for what might be going on over the next few weeks into the next few months. This will help me project growth, queen production, drone production, good flying days so they can actually meet and mate, and also good weather for foraging, what makes honey and pollen for the hive.



Long story...sorry....
