Lately I’ve been obsessed with moving everything that people typically use as widgets into my bashrc. Today I discovered wttr.in, which is an open source project on Github at https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in

Usage is almost trivial. To get weather in your terminal, simply curl the URL with your city after the forward slash. If you live in New York City, use
curl 'https://wttr.in/New%20York'

Now, if that’s too much bloat to have covering your precious terminal real estate, instead use
curl 'https://wttr.in/New%20York'?0?A?u which will truncate the curl to only today’s weather.

    Apparently, this needs the terminal to be at least 125 characters wide to display correctly. My terminal is typically narrower than that (110 by default in uncustomized Konsole, or 116 when I snap it to half my monitor width).

    Is there a way to get it formatted for the traditional VT100 80-character width, or at least ≤110?
