IT'S MORE THAN WEATHER—IT'S MyWeather.

Data Feed Overview

  • MyWeather's data product consists of current conditions and forecast XML for selected USA and international locations.
  • The current conditions data is provided by the National Weather Service.
  • The forecast data is produced by MyWeather's patented MicroCast forecasting model (for USA locations).
  • The MicroCast data contains full day summaries, day segments (morning, afternoon, evening, overnight), and hour-by-hour forecasts.
  • All data is pulled from MyWeather via HTTP and saved to the client's server(s).

Conditions of Use

  • Data and imagery must be saved to the client's server(s) on a schedule or cached upon request. We recommend every 30 minutes.
  • Data requests to MyWeather are never associated directly with user interaction on the website.
  • The product must be used in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the contract.

Requesting XML and Images

  • The data is requested using these variables: ?data={Type}{Location ID or Zip Code}
  • Type
    * = returns both forecasts & current conditions
    c = returns current conditions only
    f = returns forecasts only
  • Location IDs and zip code mapping are referenced here.
  • All locations for any USA state can be retrieved by using the state abbreviation instead of the location ID or Zip Code. Warning: do not make this HTTP call in a browser because the returned data is very large.
