# Climate Normals

Essentially, climate normals are a summary of the typical weather over a period of 30 years. This endpoint provides one GZ compressed CSV file per weather station which contains all available reference periods for the respective weather station.

# Endpoint

https://bulk.meteostat.net/v2/normals/{station}.csv.gz

Please replace {station} with the ID of a weather station.

Weather stations are identified using their Meteostat ID, which equals the WMO ID for weather stations which are part of the WMO index.
