Overview
GENERAL
The weather data for this widget will be retrieved from the OpenWeatherMap API with your own API key.
OPENWEATHERMAP API
⚠️ Important Note: OpenWeatherMap has transitioned from version One Call API 2.5 to the new One Call API 3.0.
As of now, usage of the API is no longer possible without adding valid billing information (e.g. a credit card) to your OpenWeatherMap account – even for the free tier.
This means that the Weather Widget will not work anymore unless:
– you switch to the new One Call 3.0 API, and
– you have a valid payment method on file in your OpenWeatherMap account.
🔒 Recommendation:
To avoid unexpected charges, it is highly recommended to set a billing cap / usage limit in your OpenWeatherMap account under Billing Plans after adding a payment method.
