How we made this page

The forecast is MET Norway's (CC BY 4.0) for Mukteshwar's map point at its own height, fetched every hour; the daily highs, lows and rain, the feel of the wind and the times of sunrise and sunset are worked out from it by us. The month-by-month figures are the Copernicus ERA5-Land reanalysis, 1991 to 2020, through Open-Meteo, set to the height of the town. The map point is from OpenStreetMap node/342106908 ('Mukteshwar'); the height from Copernicus GLO-90 via Open-Meteo at the point, rounded to 10 m; Wikidata Q3634952's 2171 m is only imported from Wikipedia and 113 m off the model at its own point (the Bhimtal rule); road distances from OpenStreetMap through the OSRM router.
