This is actually a very interesting alternative to Weather.com...
The documentation is here:
https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in
And for instance, a URL like:
https://wttr.in/Alexandria, Virginia, United States?format=j1
Returns a TON of good information:
Which would be reasonably easy to parse the JSON.
P.S. the value for weatherCode points to this:
https://www.worldweatheronline.com/weather-api/api/docs/weather-icons.aspx
So we might need a lookup, presumably in Lua, to match the weatherCode with a set of local icons.

So we might need a lookup, presumably in Lua, to match the weatherCode with a set of local icons.
