curl-ing the weather

In need for quick weather forecast? Use:

curl wttr.in/<your city>

Excellent little web service based on wego and wttr.in, a web frontend for wego.

You can also use installed wego directly by obtaining  API key from here and editing ~/.wegorc like:

{
"APIKey": "",
"City": "",
"Numdays": 5,
"Imperial": false,
"Lang": "en"
}

….and you get weather forecast for five days.
