Weather forecast (current, hourly and daily)
Current conditions, an hourly forecast and a daily forecast up to 10 days for any place. Hourly steps (time (UTC and local), condition (code, text, day or night), temperature, feels-like, dew point, humidity, sea-level pressure, wind speed, gust and direction, cloud cover (total, low, mid, high), fog, UV index, precipitation amount (with min/max) and its probability, thunder probability) are 1 hour for about the next 2.5 days, then 6 hours (period_hours). Each day has date, condition, min/max temperature, precipitation total and probability, thunder probability, max wind and gust, average humidity, max UV index, sunrise, sunset, solar noon, civil twilight, day length and moon phase. Choose how many days and hours to return, units and language. Data: MET Norway (CC BY 4.0).
Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.

Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).
Example
curl "https://api.api.sh/weather/v1/forecast" \
-H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY" import os, requests
res = requests.get(
"https://api.api.sh/weather/v1/forecast",
params={},
headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json() const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/weather/v1/forecast");
const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json(); Response
A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
