You can use Interaction Studio to target people experiencing certain current weather conditions, temperatures, or wind speeds by creating campaign-wide or experience-level rules for different categories of current conditions, like rain or snow, temperature ranges, or wind speed ranges. These rules are applied based on an overall condition like "thunderstorm," which includes specific subcategories such as "thunderstorm with light rain" or "thunderstorm with heavy drizzle" that are defined in the Weather Condition Targets section below.
