Historical weather observations on the daily scale are vital for the improvement of reanalysis products and the analysis of long‐term variability of extreme events. While daily datasets extend for several centuries in parts of the Northern Hemisphere, the majority of historical data for the Southern Hemisphere are monthly averages or totals. In this paper, we describe a newly recovered dataset of ten daily meteorological variables for 1877 to 1922 from Eversleigh, a property in the New England region of New South Wales in Australia. Here, we present the full process of data rescue, from digitization to quality control and an assessment of homogeneity. We show that the majority of variables were recorded to a high standard and that the data are of general use for climate analysis. Forty years of daily temperature, cloud cover, wind, and pressure observations are now available for the New England Plateau, offering data that are more complete than any other records for the region in the Australian Bureau of Meteorology dataset. The Eversleigh dataset now provides an opportunity to gain more insight into the 19th century weather and climate of eastern Australia during a time of large interannual climate variability before the dominant impact of an anthropogenic warming signal.

澳大利亚新南威尔士州阿米代尔附近的Eversleigh站的气象观测：1877–1922年

每日的历史天气预报对改进再分析产品和分析极端事件的长期变化至关重要。尽管北半球部分地区的每日数据集延伸了几个世纪，但南半球的大部分历史数据还是月平均数或总计。在本文中，我们描述了Eversleigh从1877年到1922年的10个每日气象变量的新恢复数据集，是澳大利亚新南威尔士州新英格兰地区的房地产。在这里，我们介绍了从数字化到质量控制以及同质性评估的数据救援全过程。我们表明，大多数变量都记录了较高的标准，并且该数据通常用于气候分析。现在可以在新英格兰高原获得40年的每日温度，云量，风力和压力的观测值，其数据比澳大利亚气象局数据集中该地区的任何其他记录都更完整。该Eversleigh 数据集现在提供了一个机会，可以在人为变暖信号产生主要影响之前，在每年的较大气候变化期间，深入了解19世纪澳大利亚东部的天气和气候。
