In this new release of the gem, a series of hours can be returned for the morning, afternoon, and evening, or as a list of hours for the next couple of days. Also there's a new object called this which is an alias for today as it makes it more readable with periods (e.g. w.this.afternoon).

puts w.now               #=> 10°C, Overcast

There's a couple of new features in this version. The location can now be retrieved automatically using your IP address from the geocoder gem. The forecast for any day of the week can now be retrieved.

Note: The IP address to GPS coordinates service used by the geocoder gem can lead to a timeout error when the service is apparently under heavy load.


What's new in the myweatherforecast gem version 0.3.1

require 'myweatherforecast'

mwf = MyWeatherForecast.new 'Lochend, Edinburgh', api_key: '465xxxxxxxxxxxx6ea01cbff4'


puts mwf.tomorrow #=> 9°C, Mostly Cloudy
mwf.tomorrow.time #=> 2015-10-24 12:00:00 +0100
mwf.tomorrow.icon #=> "partly-cloudy-day"
mwf.tomorrow.windspeed #=> 16
puts mwf.tomorrow.temperature #=> 9°

puts mwf.tomorrow.at('3pm') #=> 9°C, Mostly Cloudy

mwf.tomorrow.at('3pm').time #=> 2015-10-24 15:00:00 +0100
puts mwf.tomorrow.at('6pm').temperature #=> 8°
puts mwf.today #=> 9°C, Overcast
puts mwf.today.at '10am' #=> 10°C, Mostly Cloudy

As you can see, the location no longer has to be GPS coordinates.
