I've been doing a lot of reading about the upcoming loss of darksky and 
potential replacements. For those of us in the U.S., the NWS has a well 
formatted json file available via api that even has links to the icons 
needed for each day.  Has anyone tried using it with any of the skins yet?
 
I'm currently using the previous version of Belchertown with darksky, but 
will be switching to the newer version soon. I'd love to find a way to get 
the NWS forecast to display on the page instead of darksky or aeris.
 
You can use this link to get the 2.5km grid that your location (via 
lat/lon) falls in (put your own U.S. lat/lon pair):
https://api.weather.gov/points/27.8659,-82.3507 
 
And from that output, you can get the "bin" that has your weather, like 
this (in my case):
https://api.weather.gov/gridpoints/TBW/75,93/forecast 
 
I don't know how difficult this would be to add, but I do prefer the NWS 
forecasts over others for my neck of the woods.
 
Thanks for reading.
