    "description": "The U.S. Hourly Climate Normals for 1991 to 2020 provides hourly meteorological parameters for hundreds of U.S. stations located across the 50 states, as well as U.S. Territories and Commonwealths, and the Compact of Free Association nations. These stations are now largely automated, and are usually part of the Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) or Automated Weather Observing System (AWOS). The hourly normals include temperature, dew point, heat index, wind chill, wind, cloudiness, heating and cooling degree hours, pressure normals, and other statistics of these variables. Users can access the data either by product or by station. All data utilized in the computation of the 1991-2020 Climate Normals were taken from the Integrated Surface Dataset (ISD) Lite (a subset of NCEI's Integrated Surface Dataset). These source datasets (including intermediate datasets used in the computation of products) are also archived at the NOAA NCEI.",
