How to Access Weather Forecasts

Pattern	Example	Description
/weather/{country}/{city}/	/weather/united-states/san-francisco/	City forecast (canonical URL)
/weather/{city}/	/weather/tokyo/	Shorthand — redirects to most populous match
/weather/{country}/{region}/{city}/	/weather/united-states/california/san-francisco/	With region — redirects to canonical
/weather/nearby?lat={lat}&lon={lon}	/weather/nearby?lat=48.1&lon=11.5	Find nearest city by coordinates
/weather/{country}/	/weather/germany/	Country index — all cities by region

Country and city names use lowercase slugs with hyphens (e.g. united-states, san-francisco). Arbitrary city names are supported — if not in our database, we geocode the name and serve the forecast for that location.

For programmatic access, use theWindBorne Forecast APIwhich returns structured JSON for any coordinates worldwide.
