# 1gateway Global Weather Forecast

> 1gateway Global Weather Forecast is a paid API for AI agents from 1gateway.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-28).

Returns current conditions, hourly forecasts (up to 72 hours), and ~10-day daily forecasts for any lat/lon on Earth, powered by MET Norway data

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability 1gateway-global-weather-forecast-cfb2db06
```

Example prompt: What's the weather like right now in London, and can you give me the hourly forecast for the next 24 hours and the 10-day daily outlook? London is at lat 51.5072, lon -0.1276, timezone Europe/London.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a globally-available, low-cost weather forecast with structured current, hourly, and daily data from a reputable meteorological source (MET Norway) via a simple GET with lat/lon. Prefer it over generic weather APIs when you need MET Norway symbol codes, elevation metadata, and timezone-aware daily summaries in one call at $0.002 per request. Best for agents needing programmatic weather enrichment without managing API keys.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required lat or lon parameters returns an error
- Lat out of range (-90 to 90) or lon out of range (-180 to 180) returns validation error
- Invalid IANA timezone string may cause daily summary to fall back to UTC or return error
- hours value outside 0-72 range returns validation error
- MET Norway upstream outage may result in stale or unavailable data
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC balance insufficient or payment not attached
- Coordinates at sea or in very remote locations may still return data but with lower accuracy

## How this service works

Use when an agent needs the weather anywhere in the world. Input: lat, lon, optional hours (0-72 hourly steps, default 24), tz (IANA zone for daily summaries, default UTC). Output: JSON current temperature, symbol, wind, humidity, cloud, pressure; hourly series; daily min/max, precipitation, max wind, symbol for ~10 days. Data: MET Norway. Example: ?lat=51.5072&lon=-0.1276&tz=Europe/London

## Output

A JSON object containing: location metadata (lat, lon, timezone, elevation); updatedAt timestamp; current conditions (temperature in °C, wind speed in m/s, wind direction, cloud %, humidity %, pressure hPa, precipitation next hour, weather symbol); an hourly array for up to 72 steps (time, local hour, temperature, wind, cloud, humidity, precipitation, symbol); and a daily array for ~10 days (date, min/max temp, precipitation mm, max wind, symbol).
