# 4.6. Redirecting SELECT Queries

Any SELECT query can be redirected to a new table

    SELECT * INTO TABLE temp FROM weather;

This forms an implicit CREATE command, creating a new table temp with the column names and types specified in the target list of the SELECT INTO command. We can then, of course, perform any operations on the resulting table that we can perform on other tables.
