As noted in our periodic message:
Weather Data.

You will need to supply:

Name of Location
Latitude (N+/S-)
Longitude (E+/W-)
Time Zone
Elevation (meters)

And you should be aware of Meteonorm limitations:

Meteonorm extrapolates hourly data from statistical data for a
location. Where statistical data aren't available, Meteonorm interpolates
from other nearby sites. Generally a statistical approach is a last resort--
weather files generated from statistics will not demonstrate the normal
hour-to-hour and day-to-day variability seen in measured data.

Each .ZIP includes a .STAT (EnergyPlus weather data statistics), .EPW
(EnergyPlus weather file), and .INFO (Information about the source data and
limitations from Meteonorm).

IN ALL CASES, YOU SHOULD REVIEW THE .STAT FILE FOR THE LOCATION BEFORE USING
ANY OF THESE FILES TO ENSURE THAT IT REPRESENTS THE CLIMATE OF THE LOCATION AS
YOU UNDERSTAND IT. IN MANY CASES, A NEARBY LOCATION WITH MEASURED DATA MAY BE
MORE APPROPRIATE THAN ONE DERIVED FROM STATISTICS.

YOU USE THESE FILES ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.

As always, if you know of sources of weather data that we might be able to
share with the EnergyPlus community, please contact us.
