ForecastSummary Data Response

This object contains a summary forecast of a full route. Data elements are similar to those reported by a DailyForecast, although some parameters are excluded. Most fields will be populated with the "worst" data point from the batch of daily forecasts (where "worst" may be either a min or max value). Output is available in either imperial or metric units.

All response parameters should be treated as optionally available.
