Weather (Historical) weather_historical

Looker description: Hourly historical weather data with coordinates or US zip code lookups

Hourly historical weather for any location, looked up by coordinates or US zip code: temperature, humidity, wind, precipitation, and derived measures such as wet bulb, heat index, and wind chill. Use it to correlate site conditions with temperature issues, throttling, or downtime.

Grain One row per location per hour
Time field Timestamp (Hour)
Best for
  • Overlaying outdoor temperature or wet bulb on miner temperature charts
  • Explaining seasonal or daily hash rate patterns
  • Storm and wind history for a site

Example questions

  • What was the hourly outdoor temperature and wet bulb at our site last week?
  • How did miner temperature issues line up with outdoor heat index in July?
  • How many hours of rain did the site see last month?

Weather (Forecasted) weather_forecast

Looker description: 10 day, hourly forecasted weather data with coordinates or US zip code lookups

The same weather fields as the historical explore, but as a 10 day hourly forecast for any coordinates or US zip code. Use it to plan curtailment, maintenance, or cooling ahead of heat waves, storms, or freezes.

Grain One row per location per forecast hour
Time field Timestamp (Hour)
Best for
  • Upcoming heat or cold that will affect cooling and uptime
  • Storm and thunderstorm probability for the next 10 days
  • Planning maintenance windows around weather

Example questions

  • What is the forecast high temperature and heat index at our site each day this week?
  • Are thunderstorms likely at the site in the next 48 hours?
  • When does the forecast wet bulb temperature drop below 20 degrees?

Fields by view

Each explore is built from one or more views. A view is a set of related fields, and the tables below list every visible field in each view this article owns. Dimensions are attributes you can group and filter by. Measures are aggregates that add up, average, or count across the rows you select.
