bash download's desired data using station ID. I'm failed to find station ID for each city. this is first step. for the next step, we can define a dictionary to hold each city and associated ID so that we can handle the whole thing with city names, but let's focus on finding station ID as first step.

P.S: I tried to use the ID which appears on address bar when you are looking up a city, but it doesn't work. apparently it's a four digit number, 1706 in here belongs to Yellowknife.

for year in seq 1998 2008;do for month in seq 1 12;do wget --content-disposition "http://climate.weather.gc.ca/climate_data/bulk_data_e.html?format=csv& stationID=1706 &Year=${year}&Month=${month}&Day=14&timeframe=1&submit= Download+Data" ;done;done
