National Weather Service API

Official US government forecasts, hourly forecasts, alerts and observations, no API key required.

The US National Weather Service exposes forecasts, hourly forecasts, active alerts, radar stations and station observations as GeoJSON. No key and no account: you look up a point with latitude/longitude, then follow the returned forecast URL. A descriptive User-Agent is requested by their terms. Complements Open-Meteo and OpenWeatherMap with authoritative US data and severe-weather alerts.
