Thank you for sharing! Creator of Open-Meteo here. It's been an incredible experience dedicating a more than a full year to this open-source project.

My goal is to make weather data easily accessible, providing information from the past 80 years or forecasts for up to one month. All the data is sourced from reputable national weather services and is based on open-data. While I offer commercial subscriptions to support Open-Meteo's servers, my primary focus is on open-data and open-access. For this commitment, I'm actively working on redistributing the entire Open-Meteo weather dataset as open-data through an AWS Open Data Sponsorship.

In the coming months, my plans include integrating seasonal weather forecasts spanning up to 8 months, incorporating more historical ocean wave data, and improving integrations in Python, Swift, Kotlin, Typescript, and other programming languages.

Let me know if you have any questions!
