What weather and renewable energy data is available through the Xweather API?

The Xweather API provides: current conditions (temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, solar radiation), forecasts up to 15 days, historical weather observations, solar irradiance data (GHI, DNI, DHI) for PV assessment, wind speed/direction measurements, renewable energy farm power output data for US/Canada sites, weather alerts and advisories, and location search capabilities.

How do I get Xweather API credentials (Client ID and Client Secret)?

Visit https://www.xweather.com/ and sign up for an Xweather Flex subscription. Once your account is provisioned, navigate to your developer dashboard to create an application and obtain your Client ID and Client Secret. These credentials authenticate your API requests and are tied to your subscription plan. The Renewables Add-on is required for energy farm data access.

What location formats are supported for weather queries?

The API accepts multiple location formats: city names (e.g., 'Chicago,IL'), latitude/longitude coordinates (e.g., '41.88,-87.63'), weather station IDs, postal codes, and ICAO airport codes. You can also use the searchPlaces tool to find valid location identifiers or the getClosestStation tool to find the nearest weather station to any coordinates.

How far ahead can the Xweather forecast predict?

Xweather provides detailed weather forecasts up to 15 days ahead. Short-term forecasts (1-7 days) are the most accurate, with gradually decreasing accuracy for longer horizons. The forecast includes temperature, weather conditions, wind, precipitation, and solar radiation data — all essential for renewable energy production planning.
