getPRISM() doesn't return data for specific day about climater HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @BaxW,

Thanks for the note. In climateR, a URL is added as the value in cases where the URL call fails.

In your case it is because (oddly) the PRISM archive is missing a file for that date:

I am searching for a cleaner PRISM archive and hopefully this can help with this issue and I will send them a report of the missing file on Monday.

Thanks to John McGuire, over at NC State, the missing file was updated:

library(AOI)
library(climateR)
library(sf)

ptest = st_point(c(-72.42642220, 41.59313330)) %>% 
  st_sfc(crs = 4326) %>% 
  st_sf()

(getPRISM(ptest, 
         param = c('tmax', 'tmin'), 
         startDate = "2021-05-12",
         endDate = "2021-05-13"))


source   lat    lon       date  tmax  tmin
1  prism 41.58 -72.42 2021-05-12 17.45 4.966
2  prism 41.58 -72.42 2021-05-13 18.94 4.014

Hope if works for you too,
