Default Where do I find past weather data?

I was going over my dyno graph the other day and I know the humidity and Baro can't be correct on my dyno graph. It was 87* in the South in the summer time and the dyno was saying there was only 13% humidity. I got a correction factor of 1.00. What I need is a Web site I can go to to check the correct weather data for 2 July 2008 in Garner, NC. I know where to get current weather data for my local track but there doesn't seem to be any way to check history.

You'll have to download software to view the files, but its all free. I haven't actually looked at it myself, but I'm pretty sure the info your looking for is somewhere in there...

I called the State Climate Office and they gave me the data. Now I just need to know how to convert the data into SAE corrected numbers. The temp and pressure were pretty much right on. But the humidity was 45% instead of 13%.
