Historical and Climate Normals Analysis

Persist a location, retrieve a historical timeline, and pull climate normals.

  1. Create a reusable saved location to anchor the historical analysis.
  2. Retrieve a historical weather timeline for the saved location over the requested window and field set.
  3. Retrieve the monthly climate normals for the same coordinate to benchmark the observed history against the typical baseline.
What you'll need to have ready
  • apikey: Tomorrow.io API key passed as the apikey query parameter.
  • name: Human-readable name for the saved location.
  • coordinates: GeoJSON Point coordinates as [lng, lat].
  • locationString: The same point as 'lat,lng' for the climate normals query.
  • fields: Data layer fields to retrieve in the historical timeline.
  • timesteps: Historical timesteps (e.g. ['1h','1d']).
  • startTime: ISO-8601 start of the historical window.
  • endTime: ISO-8601 end of the historical window.
  • normalsFields: Comma separated climate normal fields.
  • units: Unit system (metric or imperial).
