Anyone ever use this? It's a website where you can "go back" to past dates and view the webpages of current sites as they were back then...

I'm trying to use a site similar to this to find out the weather for a specific city on a specific day, but I'm not able to find it.

Anyone know of any other sites that may provide this information?

I use it all the time to see old stuff. Very handy. I don't know of any other similar sites, though it's hard to believe there aren't any.

Hi gurutech,
Check this site. It may not have your city, but it's worth a shot.

And I love the Wayback Machine. I use it all the time!

I sometimes use the "Wayback machine" (or the Internet Archive) but not often since I tend to have server connection issues with the particular sites I'm trying to see previous versions of. It's really a "hit or miss" kind of experience for me.

Peace...

Thanks WendyM! This is exactly what I was looking for! Only problem is that it goes from 8am on one day to 8am the next day - was hoping it would be 12am to 12am; but can't be picky!
