Does anyone have any advice on where online I can find the information stored for FOF cities?

Latitude/Longitude information is easy enough to find (google earth), but how about stuff like:

Average income
current population

avg september high temp
avg september low temp
sept humitidy

dec high/low/humitidy
snow days per year
storm days per year
90 degree days per year
elevation

Any thoughts on where to look?

It doesn't have everything in a nice short list, but what about www.wikipedia.com ?

Well, especially for smaller cities, i know wikipedia comes up woefully short. I'm hoping there is some sort of weather site out there that i'm unaware of.

This might help, though I haven't looked to see if it has everything you'd need:

This appears to provide a great deal of the info needed (at least for the United States). Great link. It looks like the only date I might have to come up with a method for determining is # of snow days # of stormy days.
