wttr.in

wttr.in provides a console‑oriented weather forecast service accessible via HTTP clients such as curl, httpie, or wget. By requesting the base URL or appending a location name, airport code, or a tilde‑prefixed landmark, users receive a weather report for that place, with automatic IP‑based location when none is given. The service returns the data in several formats—ANSI‑colored terminal output, plain text, HTML, PNG images, JSON, and Prometheus metrics—chosen by user‑agent or explicit query parameters. It supports unit selection (USCS, metric, wind‑speed in m/s) and language localization through URL options. The tool is useful for developers, system administrators, and anyone who wants quick weather information from the command line or scripts without needing a graphical application. Its distinctive feature is the ability to deliver richly formatted weather data directly to terminals and other non‑graphical clients, while also offering machine‑readable formats for automation.
