Each file provides monthly values in a 5x5 lat/lon grid for the Continental United States. Data is available from 1895 to the present. In March 2015, new Alaska data was included in the nClimDiv dataset. The Alaska nClimDiv data were created and updated using similar methodology as that for the CONUS. It includes maximum temperature, minimum temperature, average temperature and precipitation. In January 2025, the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) began summarizing the State of the Climate for Hawaii. This was made possible through a collaboration between NCEI and the University of Hawaii/Hawaii Climate Data Portal and completes a long-standing gap in NCEI's ability to characterize the State of the Climate for all 50 states. NCEI maintains monthly statewide, divisional, and gridded average temperature, maximum temperatures (highs), minimum temperature (lows) and precipitation data for Hawaii over the period 1991-2025. To provide a gridded in situ dataset to the public for easy calculations of regional climate trends or comparisons with other gridded datasets.

Because of delays related to data collection, files are initially released as "preliminary". At the end of two years, "preliminary" files are reprocessed using all available data to ensure the most complete record is archived and available to users. With the addition of the new NetCDF data into the operational stream, the entire dataset period of record has migrated from HDSS tape archive DSI 9823_01 to the CLASS tape archive DSI 9823_02 2021-04-30T00:00:00 processor In January 2025, the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) began summarizing the State of the Climate for Hawaii.
