The small Météo France site I created has been updated with a new parameter that can be used to customize the unit that windspeed is presented as.
The u= parameter
The new parameter that controls the windspeed is ?u=
and accepts the following values:
Value | Comment | Examples |
---|---|---|
u=kmh | Kilometers per hour. Unit "km/h". The default setting. | Try it |
u=ms | Meters per second. Unit "m/s". | Try it |
u=kn | Knots. Unit "kn". | Try it |
u=bf | Beaufort windforce scale value between 0 and 12. Unit "F" | Try it |
More information on conversion and meaning of these different scales can be found here and on Wikipedia.
This parameter works both for the website as well as the weather API service.
