Seven-day forecast and weather risk
get_forecastThis week's forecast at a place, and how risky the weather is each day.
Per local day: minimum and maximum temperature, peak precipitation rate, peak wind, and the day's forecast risk class with the hazard behind it (heat, cold, wind, rain, snow, freezing rain) and its physical reading (UTCI felt temperature, gust speed or rain rate). Steps are hourly for the first day, then 3-hourly, then 6-hourly to day seven, and each day gives its step_hours: from the fourth day the minimum and maximum are of 6-hourly steps, so the true peak can fall between two of them. A day marked partial is cut by the start or end of the window. With hourly=true, every step.
