For developers who use WU API data for non-commercial purposes, you will have access to a new plan for a personal use, low call volume API. Stay tuned for more details as we build this out.
Isn't this us? But yeah, either way looks like we need to change APIs.
In theory its us.
In reality, the old API seems to have been broken for us now, and the new one doesn't yet exist.
I have a suspicion there's likely to be something better out there, and since we'll have to re-write for the new wunderground API if we stick with them, I think we might as well look around too.
I'll update the title to be less prescriptive since you're right, there might still be a path forward on wunderground.
This might be super silly, but you could probably just pull data from wttr.in
, since it seems to be pretty well maintained. e.g. curl wttr.in
or curl wttr.in/Location?format=%t+%m
Weather appears to be broken. It's unclear why it's broken right now, but it is clear wunderground will not be the right API to use going forward based on this announcement.
Edit: Wunderground will offer a new API we could switch to eventually, but I also think it's likely there's a better option out there. We should take wunderground dropping the old api as an opportunity to look around too.
