The API is replaced by https://developer.apple.com/documentation/weatherkitrestapi which is available as a REST API and can be used on non-Apple platforms.

its not free like darksky was for small personal apps

500,000 free requests per month

Maybe check out https://pirateweather.net/, I think the author had similar ideas.

They will have a REST api again.

Care to share what kind of automation you had?

cyclone house prep (sump pump, shutters, top off battery backup, exercise backup generator, generator fuel messaging to top off, notifications, etc.)

delay watering if rain is coming

warn of weather change so do not get caught in open waters

That is all I have now.
