open-meteo.com looks awesome. I've been messing around writing a snow forecast app for skiing/snowboarding for a while now and the main thing I'm missing is historical snowfall data. Do these data sources exist in a machine readable format and I've just not been able to find them? If so, would you ever consider adding precip + kind of precip to your historical API?

Snowfall is already available in the historical weather API. Because the resolution is fairly limited for long term weather reanalysis data, snow analysis for single mountains slopes/peaks may not be that accurate.

If you only want to analyse the weeks to get the date of last snowfall and how much power might be there, use the forecast API and the "past_days" parameter to get a continuous time-series of past high-resolution weather forecasts.
