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 precip-ai-hyperlocal-weather-data-api-wind-speed-hourly-14fa28d0
```

Example prompt: Can you pull the hourly wind speed in m/s from Precip AI for the location at 37.7749° N, 122.4194° W for today, so I can see how conditions change throughout the day?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need precise, site-specific hourly wind speed values in m/s for a particular geographic coordinate — especially for agricultural planning, renewable energy monitoring, drone operations, outdoor event planning, or any application requiring granular sub-daily wind data. Prefer this over general weather APIs when hyperlocal accuracy and hourly resolution are critical.

## Known failure modes

- Missing or invalid latitude/longitude returns a 400 error
- Out-of-range date or time period returns an error or empty dataset
- Location outside supported coverage area returns no data
- Invalid API credentials or missing payment returns 401/402
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded returns 429

## How this service works
