Open web browser -> enter url -> wttr.in/nameofyourcity
Like wttr.in/chicago
Quick and easy. No bullshit.
Work well with curl in a terminal.
😲
I never knew about this one. I use curl ifconfig.io all the time also.
My new favorite website: no ads, no JavaScript, and works with curl.
Thanks for sharing it!

I don’t really know, but since it’s a wrapper for Wego github.com/schachmat/wego I think it use one of the data source used by Wego. I think that the best improvement could be to be able to choose our own source.

Same here, which is a real shame, because I love the simplicity.
But does it also work in powershell? Haha just kidding. Nobody is using that.

But Powershell has curl. … Wait a second… … Takes off mask… Invoke-WebRequest
