to be using this data for future analysis, you can store the results in a CSV file
by setting opt_write_to_file
to be TRUE

|
station_id |
is a valid Weather Station ID
(example: "BUF", "ORD", "VABB" for Mumbai).

Note that this function is a light wrapper for getWeatherForDate with the two end dates being Jan-01 and Dec-31 of the given year.
For each day in the date range, this function fetches Weather Data.
Internally, it makes multiple calls to getDetailedWeather
.
A data frame with each row containing:
Date and Time stamp (for each date specified)
Temperature and/or other weather columns sought
