Add average daily min and average daily max to descriptive stats #173

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I had a location which did not have a TMY file nearby (Julian, CA Climate Zone 14 ). The closest TMY files (Ramona or Thermal) are both in different CA Climate zones and could have different weather. I wanted an easy way to compare the historical climate average data to the TMY files.

Describe the solution you'd like On the temp/humidity page, it would be useful to have the average daily min and average daily max stats available for locations so one can easily compare TMY files with historical weather for locations, which is often reported using this metric. e.g. https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/@5361384/climate

Describe alternatives you've considered Downloading the data and doing it myself, or eyeballing the daily average min/max each month from the plots above.

You could use the NASA tool to generate an EPW for any location in the world. I have not really used it before and I am not sure how accurate it is but this could solve your issue. The tool can be accessed using this link.

Shall we add this information to the table at the end of the page?

We have this info in the documentation. https://cbe-berkeley.gitbook.io/clima/documentation/weather-file-repositories [FXdxvywo2utPkzKLVSWo.png] Weather file repositorieshttps://cbe-berkeley.gitbook.io/clima/documentation/weather-file-repositories cbe-berkeley.gitbook.iohttps://cbe-berkeley.gitbook.io/clima/documentation/weather-file-repositories

To me this is just another example of how we should try to make the docs more visible and accessible. There’s a lot of good info in there…

Best,

Giovanni
