Endpoint: observations/summary

The observations/summary endpoint provides access to daily summaries based on received observations. This endpoint allows you to query up to one month at a time, including up to 30 days of historical data, using the from and to parameters.

Use our wizard to try out this endpoint

Supported Actions

The following actions are supported with the observations/summary endpoint:

:id Requesting data by using the :id action is used for returning data for a particular item that has an ID associated with it. This is the primary method for requesting general weather information for a single location (observations, forecasts, advisories, etc.) as the location's name or a zip code serves as the id. Other endpoints may expect a certain value for the ID, such as storm cells whose ID value is a combination of the radar site identifier and unique identifier assigned to every storm cell. Refer to an endpoint's detailed documentation for specific information regarding how to use the :id action.
closest The closest action will query the API for data that is closest to the requested place and return the results, if any, in order from closest to farthest. If no limit is provided in the request, then only the closest single result will be returned.

If your request does not return results, you may try setting or increasing the radius being used.
search The search action is used as a more general query method and expects the query to be defined with the custom query for the request. Unlike the closest action, results will not be returned in any particular order.
within The within action allows for returning data within a variety of different geometrical regions. Currently supported geometries include a circle (requires a center point and radius), rectangle (requires two coordinate points defining the top-left and bottom-right corners) and polygon (requires at least three coordinate points). Unlike the closest action, the results will not be returned in any particular order based on distance.

Supported Parameters

The following parameters are optional unless otherwise noted:

p p=:place Defines the location to query data for. Refer to the list of supported place value formats.
limit limit=:total The total number of results to return as an integer. Each endpoint may have a set maximum for this value depending on usage.

The default limit is 1 if not specified. The maximum limit for this endpoint is 10.
radius radius=:distance:unit When requesting the closest results within a circle, the radius determines how far from the specified location to search. A valid unit value must be included in your radius value, e.g., "5mi", "10km", "25miles". If no unit is provided, your value is assumed to be in meters by default.

Most endpoints utilize a default radius of 50 miles, though some endpoints, such as lightning, may have tighter restrictions specified.
filter filter=:string Predefined filters for limiting the results. The filter value can be a single, comma-delimited or a semicolon delimited string of filter names.
query query=:string Used to filter results based on certain fields in the data set. See Advanced Queries for more details.
sort sort=:string Used to sort results based on certain fields in the data set. See Sorting for more details.
skip skip=:number Used to skip over a specific number of results in the data set.
from from=:string Returns the results starting from the value specified. For best practices we recommend using the to parameter as well to define a specific time frame.

Supports a UNIX timestamp or a specific date string. Alternatively, common date formats supported by the PHP strtotime() function will be accepted; however, commas are not accepted.

Examples:
from=tomorrow
from=friday
from=1302883980
from=MM/DD/YYYY
from=YYYY/MM/DD
from=+2hours
from=2017-02-27 5:00 PM

to to=:string Returns the results between now and the value specified. For best practices we recommend using the from parameter as well to define a specific time frame. When used in conjunction with the from parameter, the value of to will be relative to the value of from, not relative to the current time.

Supports a UNIX timestamp or a specific date string. Alternatively, common date formats supported by the PHP strtotime() function will be accepted; however, commas are not accepted.

Examples:
to=+6hours
to=+5days
to=1302883980
to=MM/DD/YYYY
to=YYYY/MM/DD
to=2017-02-27 5:00 PM

plimit plimit=:total Applied only on the periods property, the total number of periods to return as an integer. The maximum plimit for this endpoint is 31.
pskip pskip=:number Applied only on the periods property, used to skip over a specific number of periods in the data set.
fields fields=:string Provides a comma separated list of values for the API to return. This parameter is often used to limit the amount of data returned. See Reducing Output.
psort psort=:string Applied only on the periods property, used to sort results based on certain fields contained within the periods.

Supported Filters

The following filters can be passed to the filter parameter to reduce the results that are returned:

allstations Returns summaries using all available stations including personal weather stations.
official Returns summaries using official government stations (alias to metar)
metar Returns summaries using only METAR observation stations.
pws Returns summaries using only PWS observation stations.
mesonet or madis Returns summaries using only MADIS observation stations.
hfmetar Returns summaries using only High Frequency METAR observations.
hasprecip Returns summaries from stations that have been known to report precipitation.
hassky Returns records that contain sky data within the observation.
qcok Returns records where all observations for the day passed Quality Control.
strict Returns summaries, where the observation for the day passed QA, included temperatures, dew points, relative humidity, pressure and clouds/weather information
centroid When utilized while passing an US zip code for the location, instructs the API to use the zip code centroid latitude/longitude versus the associated city latitude/longitude.
precise When utilized, the API will include additional decimal precision with imperial and metric attributes

Supported Query Properties

Use the following supported property keys when creating custom queries for your requests:

id Query against the station ID.
