What you get: An unframed print on heavyweight 240 gsm matte fine art paper, A3 (297 x 420 mm) or A2 (420 x 594 mm), usually sent rolled in a tube. Made to order for you. You give the date, the place, a title and, if you like, one moment to mark. That day from midnight to midnight: the sky with the sun and moon, the sunshine, the temperature (and how it felt, when wind or humidity made a difference), rain or snow, the wind and the pressure. In the UK, for days before this year, a line beneath gives the high, low and strongest gust measured at the nearest Met Office station when one is near enough. The preview on this page shows your words, dates and layout; where it is marked sample weather, the weather drawn in it is an example until we make your print.
For a wedding, a birth, the day you met or the day you moved in: any day, anywhere.
A sky runs across the top, coloured by the sun's height and clouded as the cloud cover was, with the sun's path and the moon as it was that night. Beneath it, midnight to midnight, are the sunshine, the temperature (and how it felt, when the wind or the damp made a real difference), the rain (or snow, on a snowy day) and the wind. Mark one moment, to the quarter hour, like the time of the ceremony, and a small card tells you the weather at that minute of your day.

Where the weather comes from
The weather is ERA5, a reanalysis from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. It estimates the weather for squares about 28 km across, so it describes the area around your place, not one garden. Dates before about 1950, and places far from weather stations, rest mostly on the model with few observations behind them. The examples shown are made up. Data: ERA5, ECMWF (Copernicus Climate Change Service), CC BY 4.0. Credits are printed on every sheet.
