Hi,  
if you are interested in ERA5 data you can have a look at the following two Climate Data Store (CDS) entries. You can download the data from the relevant webforms or using the [CDS API](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/how-to-api):

> ERA5 is the fifth generation ECMWF reanalysis for the global climate and weather for the past 8 decades.
> Data is available from 1940 onwards. ERA5 replaces the ERA-Interim reanalysis.
