LocalObservationDateTimeThe date and time at which the data was collected, displayed in ISO 8601 format (yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss±hh:mm).
EpochTimeThe date and time at which the data was collected, displayed as the number of seconds that have elapsed since midnight UTC/GMT on January 1, 1970.
WeatherTextA phrase describing the current weather conditions in the specified language.
WeatherIconA numeric value representing an image that displays the phrase returned in the WeatherText parameter.
HasPrecipitationA flag indicating the presence or absence of precipitation. A true response indicates precipitation, false indicates no precipitation.
PrecipitationTypeThe type of precipitation, if any. Possible values are Rain, Snow, Ice, Mixed, or Null for no precipitation.
IsDayTimeA boolean flag that indicates the day/night status. True at daytime, false at nighttime.
