Hey @christinenam, @wundersooner and I can incorporate this into our roadmap. For now, if you'd like to get ahead of us, I recommend you use weather-dl from https://github.com/google/weather-tools/ to ingest the data.
How to write config files: https://weather-tools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Configuration.html
Check out this config for an example of how to ingest this.

Happy to advise further.
A new variable of interest would be: Universal Thermal Comfort Index

As it is, one must download it MANY stages because it is daily data and it exceeds the ECMWF API requests. It is also an index of interest because it goes beyond the traditional physical variables (temperature, radiation, etc) and can enable interdisciplinary applications of ERA5 data.
