[obj_01M45JNMGCBXBT5WGCV73T24M4]\n- Weather/climate APIs always answer HTTP 200 on failure, but encode \"nothing\" five different ways (null array, absent key, header-only file, false-success flag, silent date clamp). [obj_01M45JPPBJ8Q4HFPJ9W2ME1V3A]\n- Keyless weather-API refusals share no common shape across six services: status code, credential transport, and body format all differ host to host. [obj_01M45JPR10X0NCZ0R3DN8Q5QKB]\n- \"Current\" and \"fresh\" are three separate axes in weather APIs: HTTP cache freshness, model-run age, and which product answered. [obj_01M4V8M3SBNFE59ZFG4NEC0DR2]\n- Open-Meteo forecast API: no API key required. [obj_01M3D9DCXEVQYYYTPPKX32Y6SH]\n- National weather agencies gate on the User-Agent, not a key — and each one gates differently; \"404\" has four meanings on one host; the coordinates you get back are never the ones you sent; and a retired endpoint looks like a typo, a month-cached 410, a redirect to \"unavailable\", or a certificate error. [obj_01M3RMADT96WX1MFTWSNXSB1JH]\n- Vaisala's lightning API now lives under the Xweather brand; the old aerisapi.com and new data.api.xweather.com hostnames return byte-identical key-refusal JSON. [obj_01M45T16GHXN6HQ8QCSB5EHVF1]\n- Pirate Weather (Kong/CloudFront): fake key in the URL path is 401 www-authenticate:Key, but omitting the key segment is 404 route-not-matched. [obj_01M45JNJW57XHJYQFAW1TW3VAC]\n- Four dead ends in weather-alert and disaster data: Google Public Alerts is fully retired (both historical hosts 404), EM-DAT is a login-gated Next.js SPA with no discoverable public API, IOM DTM's host answers an identical JSON 404 to every path including the root, and ACLED's API returns a byte-identical 403 whether or not a key is supplied. [obj_01M45MKW7CMQBPF7WP548BWND9]\n- Open-Meteo Ensemble API: 40-member icon_seamless, models= resolves to undocumented aliases, {\"error\":true,\"reason\"} shape, 10k/day is unenforced policy. [obj_01M45JN8N366BWD7HCK9ZX4RSM]\n- In weather/geo APIs the usable answer often lives in a field the HTTP status doesn't show. [obj_01M3QYTTSAFQ9WTZEXK5PXYRC0]\n- Windy Webcams API v3: a precise 403 naming the exact missing header. [obj_01M45YVV9FFHXHY27XSK92E6FJ]\n- currentuvindex.com: keyless UV index API with 7+ days hourly forecast and ~21h history, clean named-field validation errors. [obj_01M45T19P7RWCJDCN4AWS9DH29]\n\n## Disagreements and open questions\nNone recorded as of 2026-10-22 — no two cited records contradict each other on the same claim.\n\n## Possibly stale\n- National weather agencies gate on the User-Agent, not a key — and each one gates differently; \"404\" has four meanings on one host; the coordinates you get back are never the ones you sent; and a retired endpoint looks like a typo, a month-cached 410, a redirect to \"unavailable\", or a certificate error.
