Meteosource Weather API: current, forecast and historical data using ML
As Dark Sky's API will stop working soon I thought I'd suggest a possible replacement. It is well known that most weather APIs just download data from NOAA and "repackage" them to JSON format. This means you will get data only for the nearest grid point which might be a few kilometers away and at a different altitude than your actual location. Meteosource combines more models (GFS, ECMW, UKMO, GEM,...). It compares individual models' performance to historical data and uses machine learning to create a single output. This approach minimises inaccuracies of individual models and feeds a…
Meteosource Weather API: current, forecast and historical data using ML launched on March 30, 2023 with 20 votes, #1,749 of 5,007 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.
In plain words
Meteosource Weather API provides current, forecast, and historical weather data as an alternative to Dark Sky. Instead of using a single weather model, it combines multiple models (GFS, ECMWF, UKMO, GEM) and applies machine learning to compare their performance against historical data, generating a single optimized output. This approach produces hyper-local predictions for specific coordinates rather than nearest grid points. Historical data comes from actual measurements rather than forecasts. A free developer plan is available.

Weather API for the most accurate weather ☀️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️ data: minute-by-minute, hourly, daily forecasts up to 30-days. Hyperlocal weather forecast API for any place in the world.
Accurate weather data powered by machine learning, easy to integrate into your website or app, and affordable at any scale. Built for weather-dependent decisions in energy, insurance, agriculture, logistics, and beyond. Partly sunny changing to cloudy by afternoon and evening. Temperature 11/19 °C. Most weather services rely on a single global model. Meteosource combines all major global models using machine learning that weighs each one by its past performance for a given location and situation. On top of that, we add high-resolution regional models, AI adjustments for cities, and real-time nowcasting - delivering hyperlocal forecasts for any place in the world, updated every 10 minutes.…from meteosource.com

I'm a big fan of the BBC podcast In Our Time -- and (like most people) I've been playing with the OpenAI APIs. In Our Time has almost 1,000 episodes on everything from Cleopatra to the evolution of teeth to plasma physics, all still available, so it's my starting point to learn about most topics. But it's not well organised. So here are the episodes sorted by library code. It's fun to explore. Web scraping is usually pretty tedious, but I found that I could send the minimised HTML to GPT-3 and get (almost) perfect JSON back: the prompt includes the Typescript definition. At the same time I…
