Example Interactions

User: “北京今天天气怎么样？”

weather = get_realtime_weather('北京')
response = f"""
☁️ 北京今日天气

天气状况：{weather['weather']}
🌡️ 温度：{weather['temperature']}°C
💧 湿度：{weather['humidity']}
💨 风力：{weather['wind']}
🌫️ 空气质量：{weather['air_quality']}
"""

User: “上海未来三天天气”

forecast = get_weather_forecast('上海')
response = "📅 上海未来天气预报\n\n"
for day in forecast['forecast'][:3]:
    response += f"{day['date']} {day['day_of_week']}\n"
    response += f"  {day['weather']} {day['temp_low']}°C ~ {day['temp_high']}°C\n"

User: “深圳会下雨吗？”

weather = get_realtime_weather('深圳')
if '雨' in weather['weather']:
    print("☔ 是的，深圳现在正在下雨")
    print("建议带伞出门！")
else:
    forecast = get_weather_forecast('深圳')
    rain_days = [d for d in forecast['forecast'] if '雨' in d['weather']]
    if rain_days:
        print(f"未来{rain_days[0]['date']}可能会下雨")
    else:
        print("近期没有降雨预报")

Best Practices

1. Location Names: Always use Chinese characters for location names

2. Error Handling: Check if the location is valid before displaying results

3. Context: Provide relevant context based on weather conditions

   • Rain: Suggest bringing umbrella
   • Hot: Recommend staying hydrated
   • Cold: Advise wearing warm clothes
   • Poor AQI: Suggest wearing mask

4. Caching: Weather data is updated regularly but can be cached for short periods

5. Fallbacks: If a specific district doesn’t work, try the city name

Common Use Cases

1. Weather-based Recommendations

def give_weather_advice(location):
    weather = get_realtime_weather(location)
    advice = []
    
    temp = int(weather['temperature'])
    if temp > 30:
        advice.append("🔥 天气炎热，注意防暑降温，多喝水")
    elif temp < 5:
        advice.append("🥶 天气寒冷，注意保暖")
    
    if '雨' in weather['weather']:
        advice.append("☔ 记得带伞")
    
    if weather['air_quality'] in ['差', '重度污染']:
        advice.append("😷 空气质量不佳，建议戴口罩")
    
    return '\n'.join(advice)

2. Multi-city Weather Comparison

def compare_weather(cities):
    results = []
    for city in cities:
        weather = get_realtime_weather(city)
        results.append({
            'city': city,
            'temperature': int(weather['temperature']),
            'weather': weather['weather']
        })
    
    # Find hottest and coldest
    hottest = max(results, key=lambda x: x['temperature'])
    coldest = min(results, key=lambda x: x['temperature'])
    
    return f"🌡️ 最热: {hottest['city']} {hottest['temperature']}°C\n" \
           f"❄️ 最冷: {coldest['city']} {coldest['temperature']}°C"

3. Travel Weather Check

def check_travel_weather(destination, days=3):
    forecast = get_weather_forecast(destination)
    suitable_days = []
    
    for day in forecast['forecast'][:days]:
        if '雨' not in day['weather'] and '雪' not in day['weather']:
            suitable_days.append(day['date'])
    
    if suitable_days:
        return f"✅ {destination}适合出行的日期：{', '.join(suitable_days)}"
    else:
        return f"⚠️ 未来{days}天{destination}天气不太适合出行"

Troubleshooting

Issue: Location not found

• Solution: Try using the main city name instead of district
• Example: Use “北京” instead of “朝阳区”

Issue: No forecast data

• Solution: Verify the location name is correct
• Try standard city names: 北京, 上海, 广州, 深圳, etc.

Issue: Data seems outdated

• Solution: The API updates regularly, but weather can change quickly
• Check the updated timestamp in the response
