This function retrieves GEM Ensemble time series forecast from the Open-Meteo API for a given point of latitude/longitude.
Required Arguments:
1) latitude (Float or Integer) - Latitude in decimal degrees.
2) longitude (Float or Integer) - Longitude in decimal degrees.
Optional Arguments:
1) days (Integer) - Default=7. Amount of days to go out for the forecast. Maximum is 36.
2) temperature_units (String) - Default=’fahrenheit’. The units for temperature.
Valid Temperature Units
-----------------------
1) fahrenheit
2) celsius
3) wind_speed_units (String) - Default=’mph’. The units for wind speed.
Valid Wind Speed Units
----------------------
1) mph - miles per hour
2) kmh - kilometers per hour
3) ms - meters per second
4) kn - knots
4) precipitation_units (String) - Default=’inch’. The units for precipitation amounts.
Valid Precipitation Units
-------------------------
1) inch - inches
2) mm - millimeters
5) variables (String List) - Default=[‘temperature_2m’, ‘relative_humidity_2m’, ‘dew_point_2m’, ‘apparent_temperature’, ‘precipitation’, ‘rain’, ‘snowfall’, ‘snow_depth’, ‘weather_code’, ‘pressure_msl’, ‘cloud_cover’, ‘surface_pressure’, ‘et0_fao_evapotranspiration’, ‘vapour_pressure_deficit’, ‘wind_speed_10m’, ‘wind_direction_10m’, ‘temperature_850hPa’, ‘temperature_500hPa’, ‘geopotential_height_850hPa’, ‘geopotential_height_500hPa’]
6) proxies (dict or None) - Default=None. If the user is using a proxy server, the user must change the following:
proxies=None ---> proxies={
'http':'http://your-proxy-address:port',
'https':'http://your-proxy-address:port'
}
7) to_csv (Boolean) - Default=False. When set to True the data will be saved as a CSV file to {path} wth {filename}
8) path (String) - The path where the CSV file is saved to.
9) filename (String) - The filename for the CSV file.
Returns
A Pandas.DataFrame of the GEM Ensemble time series forecast for a given point of latitude/longitude.
