## Actual weather and current weather data {#factual}

One of the most popular uses of weather data is getting information about the current weather at a specific location.

To request information about the **current** weather at a certain point, you need to include the `now` object in the request and list the fields you want to get in the response.

Our API can provide data on:

- temperature – `temperature`;
- air humidity – `humidity`;
- atmospheric pressure – `pressure`;
- precipitation type and intensity – `precType`, `precStrength`;
- wind speed and direction – `windSpeed`, `windDirection`;
- cloudiness – `cloudiness`;
- other weather parameters.

You can use the special units of measurement:

- [PressureUnit](https://yandex.com/dev/weather/doc/en/concepts/spectaql.md#definition-PressureUnit) – the pressure value;
- [TemperatureUnit](https://yandex.com/dev/weather/doc/en/concepts/spectaql.md#definition-TemperatureUnit) – the temperature value;
- [WindSpeedUnit](https://yandex.com/dev/weather/doc/en/concepts/spectaql.md#definition-WindSpeedUnit) – the wind speed value.

You can check a detailed list of available fields and their arguments at [Full GraphQL specification](https://yandex.com/dev/weather/doc/en/concepts/spectaql.md#query-weatherByPoint).

Example:

{% include [button](../_includes/button-cd154f71d142.md) %}
<div class="button-container">
    <a target="_blank" href="https://clck.ru/38yN3F">Run in playground</a>
</div>

```graphql


{
  weatherByPoint(request: {lat: 52.37125, lon: 4.89388}) {
    now {
      cloudiness
      humidity
      precType
      precStrength
      pressure
      temperature
      fahrenheit: temperature(unit: FAHRENHEIT)
      windSpeed
      windDirection
    }
  }
}
```
