The NOAA? I didn't get dncy so I'm calling get_station_info with a hardcoded latitude and longitude. The commented out print(json.dumps()) pretty print the JSON so you can decide what to extract. I'm not 100% sure about tacking K onto the grid ID. The famous 'works for me' A URL like https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.8551337&lon=-114.0140115 will show the same info, in this case for Wendover Airport (KENV). https://www.weather.gov/documentation/services-web-api is the documentation for the API. import json import requests def get_station_info(latitude, longitude): url = f"https://api.weather.gov/points/{latitude},{longitude}"; response = requests.get(url).json() # print(json.dumps(response, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) property = response['properties'] grid_id = property["gridId"] grid_x = property["gridX"] grid_y = property["gridY"] forecast_url = property["forecast"] observation_url = f"https://api.weather.gov/stations/K{grid_id}/ observations/latest" response = requests.get(observation_url).json() # print(json.dumps(response, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) properties = response['properties'] pressure = properties['barometricPressure'] temperature = properties['temperature'] humidity = properties['relativeHumidity'] dewpoint = properties['dewpoint'] temp = 9 * temperature['value'] / 5 + 32 dew = 9 * dewpoint['value'] / 5 + 32 hum = humidity['value'] bp = pressure['value'] * 0.000295 print(f"temperature {temp} dewpoint {dew:.2f} humidity {hum:.2f} pressure {bp:.2f}\n") response = requests.get(forecast_url).json() properties = response['properties'] periods = properties['periods'] # print(json.dumps(period, indent=4, sort_keys=True)) for i in range(0, len(periods)): period = periods[i] print(period['name']) print(period['detailedForecast']) print(f"temperature: {period['temperature']}") print(f"wind {period['windSpeed']} {period['windDirection']}") print() -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
