Open web browser -> enter url -> wttr.in/nameofyourcity

Like wttr.in/chicago

Quick and easy. No bullshit.

Work well with curl in a terminal.

Don't know where it's pulling the data but it's definitely not accurate for the couple cities I tested.

I don't really know, but since it's a wrapper for Wego https://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.

I never knew about this one. I use curl ifconfig.io all the time also.

Thanks for sharing it!
