Show weather forecast on the command line.
This tool queries the National Weather Service to get current forecast for your current location.
⚠ Note: internet connection required.
By default, your location is determined by based on ip address geolocation via ip-api.com and then passed to weather service API to get your forecasting area.
Note that using a VPN may skew the results.
You can override this behavior, by using the -zip switch and providing a US zip code to see a forecast for that specific location. In that case, your geographical location will be determined via Zipppopotam.us API instead.
You can use the -location switch to check what location of forecast. Please note that the -location displays your forecast area returned by the National Weather Service API based on your latitude and longtitude. The forcast areas are sometimes larger than a zip codes, so you may not always see your exact town name displayed -- this is normal.

-week

-zip <zip code>
