Part of Met Eireann data is accessible through the Met Eireann site but in HTML only. Copyright notice on https://www.met.ie/copyright/default.asp states attribution only required however commercial use of data is prohibited.

Other data is available on https://data.gov.ie/dataset/weather-observations however this is only on a monthly basis. No licence information is provided. The direct links, again, extend out to another website, https://eca.knmi.nl/dailydata/customquery.php where data can only be downloaded on a piece by piece basis. The data on this site does not include all testing stations.

There is no machine readable daily accessible feed of data open to the public that can be found
