    [date],
    (err, results, field) => {
      if (err) {

      } else {
        res.status(200).send(results);
        console.log(results);
      }
    }
  );
});

Answer 1

You can have both in the same query, no need for a second select:

select max(temperature) as highesttemperature,
min(temperature) as lowesttemperature 
from weather_data 
where dt=?

The error is in your first query, there is no FROM clause.

Answer 2

Try this

SELECT MIN(temperature), MAX(temperature) FROM weather_data
