ASCII weather

The weather, rendered the way a terminal would — as ASCII art. Search any city or use your location; the forecast is real, pulled live in your browser. A little homage to wttr.in.

How it's built: vanilla JavaScript. A city name is turned into coordinates by Open-Meteo's geocoding API (or your browser's Geolocation API if you allow it), then the forecast comes from Open-Meteo — both free, keyless and CORS-friendly, so it all runs client-side. WMO weather codes are mapped to hand-drawn ASCII art. If your network blocks the request, it fails gracefully with a note. No data about you is stored or sent anywhere but Open-Meteo.
