General information on weather data  

• Weather forecasts are available as open data, but it is on daily basis and history is not saved. "Download Service has limit of 20000 requests per day" https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/open-data-manual-time-series-data "Open Data WFS service of the Finnish Meteorological Institute uses stored queries that provide surface weather observations and point forecasts."  

• It seems that observations and forecasts are similarly formatted: Data is available in two formats: “multipointcoverage” and “timevaluepair”. In the link above there is a javascript example on data download. A link to FMI forecast data handling https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/open-data-manual-forecast-models 

• On observation data: A link on how to access data using the download service https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/open-data-manual-accessing-data. In the link there are Javascript, python and R libraries for data retrieval. Examples and quidelines: https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/open-data-manual-wfs-examples-and-guidelines
