History summaries are powerful weather queries where the weather engine calculates a single result that summarizes many historical data records. For example, this type of query could be used to calculate the climate change for a given location by aggregating individual weather observations across multiple decades. For more information, see our documentation.

This type of query filtering allows users to specify which specific hours of the day should be included in their result data. Hours outside the specified range are excluded from all results including summaries and aggregations. Weather conditions often vary significantly over the course of a 24-hour day while businesses and other activities are typically only active during a portion of those hours. For this reason, you can get more accurate weather correlations by including only the active hours in your weather results. As an example, if a retail business is only open from 9am to 9pm, an overnight freezing temperature is likely to have a minimal effect on the foot traffic for a given day as long as the business hours temperatures are conducive to outdoor activity. However, freezing temperatures during business hours are likely to have a much greater impact. For more information, see our documentation.
