What it does: Current weather, hourly and 7-9 day forecast for any city or coordinates worldwide, from MET Norway, with metric or imperial units.

Who it's for: Travel, events, logistics, farming and personal-assistant agents.

Price: Pay per event: $0.003 per location. Places not found are not charged. You only pay Apify for what you run; there is no monthly fee for this Actor.

Current conditions, an hourly forecast and a 7–9 day daily forecast for anywhere on Earth, from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET Norway, api.met.no), the same model data used by yr.no.

• Look up by city name ("Paris", "Springfield, Illinois, US", "Munich") or lat/lon
• Current: temperature, feels-like (wind chill), condition, rain next hour, wind speed/gust/direction, humidity, pressure, cloud, UV
• Hourly (default next 24 h, local time) and daily min/max, total rain, max wind, main condition
• Metric or imperial (°F, mph, inches)
• Batch up to 500 locations per run
