Note: I'm using the OpenWeatherMap as the API and the Mond weather skin as our victim example. The instructions below will be skin agnostic, but since different weather skins may need different data, you may need to do some extra tweaks. Someone who has your API key may randomly use it and easily hit the API request limit. Once you acquired your API key, hop on to the next step! Most weather API services require sign ups to acquire an API key, which is totally fair to prevent DDOS-ing on their servers. Of course, you can choose any other services as you wish. There are a few weather API services out there with generous free tiers, such as OpenWeatherMap, ClimaCell, Weatherbit and AccuWeather.

Update : Dark Sky have been acquired by Apple and is shuting down its services by 1 July 2020 :( (Don't worry, I'll guide you through it)ДЄnd finally, I'll list what else that needs to be done because different skins have different ways of handling and displaying weather. Next, we will change to the skin's API endpoint and apply a new regex to it. It could be any weather API as long as it provides the information you need and of course, a reasonable request rate. We will start by looking for a new weather API. Before we get started, here's what you need to know about what we'll be doing in the next few minutes.
