# Weather Skill

Get current weather conditions and forecasts.

## Scope

Current conditions and forecasts for any city, region, or airport code. For historical data, climate analysis, severe alerts, or aviation/marine weather, use specialized services instead.

Always include a location in queries.

## Commands

### Current Weather

```bash
# One-line summary
curl "wttr.in/London?format=3"

# Detailed current conditions
curl "wttr.in/London?0"

# Specific city
curl "wttr.in/New+York?format=3"
```

### Forecasts

```bash
# 3-day forecast
curl "wttr.in/London"

# Week forecast
curl "wttr.in/London?format=v2"

# Specific day (0=today, 1=tomorrow, 2=day after)
curl "wttr.in/London?1"
```

### Format Options

```bash
# One-liner
curl "wttr.in/London?format=%l:+%c+%t+%w"

# JSON output
curl "wttr.in/London?format=j1"

# PNG image
curl "wttr.in/London.png"
```

### Format Codes

- `%c` — Weather condition emoji
- `%t` — Temperature
- `%f` — "Feels like"
- `%w` — Wind
- `%h` — Humidity
- `%p` — Precipitation
- `%l` — Location

## Notes

- No API key needed (uses wttr.in)
- Rate limited — avoid rapid repeated requests
- Works for most global cities and airport codes (`curl wttr.in/ORD`)
