API Reference
The Weather Climate API offers monthly climate data for locations worldwide, providing insights into average temperatures, precipitation trends, and long-term climate patterns.
The climate averages are based on weather observations from the past ten years. This approach is chosen to provide a globally accurate representation of the expected weather in the current (rapidly changing) climate for each month. The 10-year climate average is updated annually, ensuring the data remains relevant and accurate.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| lat | number | Required | - | The latitude of the location |
| lon | number | Required | - | The longitude of the location |
| period | string | Optional | month | Period of the data, available values: month, half_month, ten_days |
| Property | Type | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
period | string | The time period over which the climate averages are calculated. | enum: ["month"] |
periods | array | An array of monthly climate data objects, each representing climate statistics for one month. | |
└─month | integer | The month of the year, represented as an integer from 1 (January) to 12 (December). | min: 1
max: 12 |
└─period | integer | An identifier for the specific period, typically 1 for monthly data. |
