Collect NOAA data #3

Figure out how to access the data and find if there are any useful features from NOAA.

Couldn't find anything promising. Found a dataset called world weather records that had historical climate data by region, but there's no information on how to interpret older records, making them somewhat unusable.

We could work with the newer records, but the data was aggregated in months, and if we wanna focus on extreme weather events, I think a higher frequency like weekly or daily would be better.

I had a hard time finding anything useful outside of US data on NOAA. IMO trying to use their data directly is too complicated and we should consider not doing it or using it indirectly (from a service or something)
