Weather observations
This API provides current surface weather observation data from the Finnish Meteorological Institute's network of weather stations across Finland. Measured parameters include temperature, air pressure, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, and precipitation, though the specific set of variables recorded varies by station location. Observations are typically updated every 10 minutes, offering near-real-time insight into weather conditions nationwide. The dataset is freely accessible without authentication and is maintained by the national meteorological authority.The data contains the current surface weather observation values of the Finnish Meteorological Institute's weather observation stations. Surface weather observations include temperature, pressure, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, and precipitation. The measured observation values vary from position to position. Typically, observational values are measured every 10 minutes.
