Open Meteo

When to use

• You need weather forecasts (hourly/daily/current) for coordinates.
• You need air quality / pollen forecasts (hourly/current) for coordinates.
• You need to resolve a user-provided place name to coordinates and timezone (geocoding).
• You need to support multi-location batching (comma-separated lat/lon lists).
• You need a deterministic checklist for Open-Meteo query parameters, response parsing, and error handling.

Goal

Provide a reliable, production-friendly way to call Open-Meteo APIs (Forecast, Air Quality, Geocoding), choose variables, control time/units/timezone, and parse responses consistently.

Steps

1. Pick the correct API and base URL
