Since we already will use a CheckWX API to receive METAR data, that service also offers TAF data, which is a local forecast.
Example:
url = "https://api.checkwx.com/taf/KJFK/decoded"
The forecasts in my Tempest weather station are laughably bad and so far off that I cannot take them seriously, so it is a separate step to have to open up the NWS site to get the official local forecast, which in our area has been the most accurate over time. TAF data would provide that same data, without needing to open a separate application.
