A weather forecast is a prediction about the expected atmospheric conditions for a specific location and time in the near future. It provides information about various weather parameters, such as temperature, precipitation, wind speed and direction, humidity, and more. Weather forecasts are generated by analyzing meteorological data collected from various sources, including weather stations, satellites, radar systems, and computer models.

OpenWeatherMap provides multiple subscription plans to display the weather forecast.

If your API key was generated before September 2022, you can display weather forecasts for up to 8 days by choosing the specific location with Coordinates. If the API key was generated after September 2022 then you have to get a subscription plan to display the Weather forecast.
