The forecast platform uses the [Forecast.io](https://forecast.io/) web service as a source for meteorological data for your location.
You need an API key which is free but requires a [registration](https://developer.forecast.io/register).
To add Forecast.io to your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
platform: forecast
api_key: YOUR_APP_KEY
monitored_conditions:
- summary
- precip_type
- precip_intensity
- temperature
- dew_point
- wind_speed
- wind_bearing
- cloud_cover
- humidity
- pressure
- visibility
- ozone
```
Details about the API are available in the (Forecast.io documentation)[https://developer.forecast.io/docs/v2].
