Climate

GET
https://api.infoplaza.com/v1/weather/climate

Description

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.

Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
latnumberRequired-The latitude of the location
