For example code and how to use this api, please take a look into `Examples_*.php` files and run them in your browser.
- `Examples_Current.php` Shows how to receive the current weather.
- `Examples_Forecast.php` Shows how to receive weather forecasts.
- [*NEW*] `Examples_History.php` Shows how to receive weather history.
- `Examples_Cache.php` Shows how to implement a cache.
