Just 3 points ...
1) don't use "date" as a column name because it's a data type.
2) to_char(current_date, 'MM')||to_char(current_date, 'DD') is equivalent to to_char(current_date,
'MMDD')
3) you should get the same result with
...where icao='KSFO' and (EXTRACT (MONTH from date) = 9) and (EXTRACT (DAY from date) BETWEEN 23 AND 29))
group by
...
Then you lost me with your 3 day idea =8-}
It might be depressingly slow but depending how time critical the report
is, you could do something like
select distinct (date) date, (select max(dc1.tmax) from daily_climate as dc1 where dc1.date
between (dc0.date - interval '1 day') and (dc0.date + interval '1 day'))
as max_tmax, (select min(dc1.tmax) from daily_climate as dc1 where dc1.date
between (dc0.date - interval '1 day') and (dc0.date + interval '1 day'))
as min_tmax,
.................
from daily_climate as dc0
............
That's just something that might get you a result.
I didn't try it out.
