So yeah, I’m trying to build something like “Do I need an Umbrella”, but it seems there’s no API available to get rain probability data for locations other than the US.
Does anyone know any weather APIs that do provide rain probability in their (preferrably XML) responses?
Edit: I literally just discovered The Weather Channel’s API, which /seems/ to have rain probability, but I’m not sure whether 100 requests per day will be enough, as I don’t intend to pay 20$ per month to get that data. My server is already expensive enough.
“non US” is rather broad, but there are certainly places to get data.
To get you started, I know of a dutch one via http://gratisweerdata.buienradar.nl/ . You’d have to read dutch for the site, but that’s quite sparse anyway
Available in xml ( http://xml.buienradar.nl/) or by lat/long http://gps.buienradar.nl/getrr.php?lat=52&lon=4
