I love a good API and while I don’t have a special interest in weather data, Weather Machine looks particularly cool. It’s a “universal API adapter” from Hello Weather that taps into accurate forecasts from the best weather sources in the world:
With Weather Machine, you can write just one integration for your app and get highly accurate global forecasts from The Weather Company, AccuWeather, AerisWeather, and many other reputable sources. It’s drop-in compatible with Dark Sky’s API formats, so you can switch over in minutes. And it includes an advanced forecast-aware caching system, which can cut your data usage up to 50%, saving you money without sacrificing any speed or accuracy.

If I test this, I may look at how weather has changed in my favourite cities or analyse snowfall around December in the UK.
