Two thoughts:
The situation seems ripe for someone, outside the weewx project, to
make an API that fronts for all national APIs, so that this aggregated
API can be consumed by projects. Basically a library, to do this work
once. Easier suggested than accomplished, and may have terms of
service problems, so could end up being a library.
Home Assistant has weather integrations. Besides getting one's own
weewx data in via mqtt, there are a number of integrations for various
providers. I'm using the NWS one, which suits me because I'm in the
US and their policies seem good. But there seem to also be services
with global data. HA seems like a good source for inspiration and
knowledge of how to use APIs.
