The main publicly  \n12 available databases consist of data only for 167 meteorological stations within  \n13 Republic of Sakha (3,08 ml km2), Magadan Obslat (0,46 ml km2) and Chukotka  \n14 (0,72 ml km2), which makes the meteorological network in that region - almost  \n15 entirely underlain by continuous permafrost -one of the sparsest on the planet, at  \n16 approximately 1 station per 25000 km2. The longest series dates back to 1834 at the  \n17 first official meteorological station in Yakutsk-24959, while the shortest to 1987 in  \n18 Anabar-21608), however, data availability is highly inconsistent, and more than half  \n19 of meteorological stations contain gaps of up to 40% in their timeseries. Despite the  \n20 abundance of reanalysis products, here we aim to assess the current meteorological  \n21 network, the available observation data, and to merge three different datasets into a  \n22 unified database containing the following parameters: mean, maximum, and 23 minimum daily air temperature, daily precipitation totals and snow cover thickness.  \n24 The resulting database spans the period from 1 January 1966 to 30 September 2025, 25 with daily temporal resolution, and includes source references as well as the number  \n26 of measurements recorded for each day as a quality indicator parameter. We carried  \n27 out automated cleaning for obvious mistakes and typos as well as deleting duplicates.  \n28 Chosen parameters are particularly important for a wide range of researchers, as well  \n29 as for society and policymakers. This dataset has been used for filling gaps in air  \n30 temperature time series using machine learning approaches. For convenient access, 31 we have developed an online dashboard that presents the main meteorological  \n32 parameters at daily, decadal, monthly, and annual scales. The database presented and  \n33 described in this article is available for download at  \n34 [https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19883706](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19883706) and at  \n35 [https://robertseesaw.shinyapps.io/meteo-dashboard/](https://robertseesaw.shinyapps.io/meteo-dashboard/) .  \n[https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-2026-346](https://doi.org/10.5194/essd-2026-346)  \nPreprint.

Introduction  \n37 Datasets from meteorological stations situated across the permafrost zone of  \n38 northern latitudes have great value due to their limited availability (Cowtan and Way, 39 2014; Folland et al., 2013; Simmons et al., 2010) . Severe climate conditions, road  \n40 inaccessibility, and high cost of experiments and instrument maintenance result in a  \n41 low density of meteorological network (Gorokhov and Fedorov, 2018; Lytkin et al., 42 2021; Streletskiy et al., 2019, 2025) . Although numerous climatic indices exist, the  \n43 most representative indicators are near-surface air temperatures, precipitation and  \n44 snow depth (Hu et al., 2021; Menne et al., 2012; Tran et al., 2024) .
