Hello derraf, 

Unfortunately, there are no sites to download .wea files.

Instead, users download .epw files from the EnergyPlus weather website, then open these.epw files into the Weather Manager and save as .wea file to be used with Ecotect.

You will find that Bou Ssaada is not available at this site (only a file for Algiers), so you will have to find another file that might matches the same climate.

Interestingly enough, given the latitude of Bou Ssaada, I have found that the climate for Las Vegas, NV is quite similar in terms of temperature trends, so you might want to experiment with that.  The wind and other data does not match, but having the temperature close enough might give you a good start when doing thermal analyses.  Check out this data for Bou Ssaada and Las Vegas for temperature and see how well they match.

Also, I am attaching my own .wea file for Las Vegas here to get you started.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
