🟢get_drive_weather(destination, origin, departure, units, intent)
Arrival-time weather between named places, defaulting to departure now. Planned departures use local time at the origin within ten days. Missing or ambiguous places return clarification. Includes data credits and a link to the drive in Windshield Weather. Returns text and structured data without a card, suitable for scheduled or background checks, summaries and comparisons. The paired get_drive_weather_interactive tool also displays an interactive forecast card.
