Hi all. I am working on weatherkit rest api to integrate to my android app. As a Dark Sky api user I can get timezone of the location which is requested which provides by Dark Sky api by default. But as far as i see there is no data for timezone info in weatherkit rest api. As an example it is necessary for sunrise data and etc. I know getting device timezone is easiest way but it's possible that an user can request a location has different timezone. I wish rest api provide location's timezone by default.

Same here. It's really bad that I can't have the location timezone. I have to recreate the entire fetching logic of my app and find an API that can do that
