[Enhancement] Add additional weather providers #125

Closed TylerWilliamson closed 1 month ago

TylerWilliamson commented 7 months ago

I received an email requesting that I add Weatherbit and AerisWeather as providers to QuickWeather. Please use this thread to suggest additional weather providers.

You mean like NOAA?

TylerWilliamson commented 6 months ago

NOAA does not provide a data feed that I know of. I am refering to services with weather APIs like OpenWeatherMap and Open-Meteo and the others mentioned in the comment

I thought NOAA was what wX was using but i could be wrong

Oh, that app is indeed using the NOAA / NWS weather API directly. Both OpenWeatherMap and Open-Meteo use that model for US weather, but it does not seem to have weather forecasts for other countries. For now, I do not think I will be adding support for using the NOAA / NWS API directly

Fair enough, i just thought the had one so wanted to mention it

Just to make people aware that openweathermap are making some changes to there API, they are migrating onecall 2.5 to onecall 3.0, and onecall 2.5 will close in june 2024. You can sign up to onecall 3.0 and still get 1000 calls/day but you need to add your details for billing additional calls.

@shed40 Thank you. I am already working on an update for QuickWeather which will inform users who use OneCall 2.5 that they will need OneCall 3.0 soon. QuickWeather will continue to work with OneCall 2.5 until OpenWeatherMap shuts down that API, but as of QuickWeather 2.6.10, they will be unable to enter new OpenWeatherMap API Keys that do not have OneCall 3.0

Surprised Pirate Weather hasn't been mentioned at all yet. They even have alerts

Pirate Weather seems very interesting. I will look into adding support for it
