$weather = $meteo->weather($ramsgate, '2022-12-25');

Takes an optional argument, tz, which defaults to 'Europe/London'. For that to work set TIMEZONEDB_KEY to be your API key from https://timezonedb.com.
ua
Accessor method to get and set UserAgent object used internally. You can call env_proxy for example, to get the proxy information from environment variables:
$meteo->ua()->env_proxy(1);
You can also set your own User-Agent object:
use LWP::UserAgent::Throttled;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent::Throttled->new();
$ua->throttle('open-meteo.com' => 1);
$meteo->ua($ua);
