The new parameter that controls the windspeed is ?u= and accepts the following values:Value | Comment | Examples |
u=bf | Beaufort scale of windforce between 0 and 12. More information about conversions. Unit "F" |
Try it |
u=ms | Meters per second. Unit "m/s". | Try it |
u=kn | Knots. Unit "kn". | Try it |
u=kmh | Kilometers per hour. Unit "km/h". This is the current default. | 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.
