precipitationChance for currentWeather dataset using future dates
Hi, thanks for the REST API, it's fantastic to have a replacement for DarkSky. I've noticed that precipitationChance is missing on the currentWeather dataset. If currentAsOf is specified in the request as a future date/time, precipitationChance would be really helpful to have since there appears to be no other way to know the probability of precipitation short of getting an hourly forecast for the same time period. Could we have precipitationChance added? An additional benefit would be improved symmetry with hourly forecasts. Thanks, David

clarification on precipitationItensity/precipitationChance
I've received a forecast with non-zero precipitationChance and zero precipitationIntensity. Is this expected? How should I interpret the data? { "forecastStart": "2023-09-02T02:00:00Z", "cloudCover": 0.55, "conditionCode": "PartlyCloudy", "daylight": false, "humidity": 0.92, "precipitationAmount": 0, "precipitationIntensity": 0, "precipitationChance": 0.31, "precipitationType": "clear", "pressure": 1017.56, "pressureTrend": "steady", "snowfallIntensity": 0, "snowfallAmount": 0, "temperature": 12.56, "temperatureApparent": 12.22, "temperatureDewPoint": 11.26, "uvIndex": 0, "visibility": 23505.2, "windDirection": 233, "windGust": 6.17, "windSpeed": 2.82 }
