    wttr.in tricks:

    1. curl wttr.in: forecast for your location.
    2. curl wttr.in/Paris: a specific city.
    3. curl wttr.in/Moon: moon phase.
    4. curl "wttr.in/Paris?format=3": one-line output.
    5. curl wttr.in/:help: all options.

    Works with PowerShells curl.exe on Windows too. And the related curl cheat.sh/tar returns a cheat sheet for the tar command, sooo you don't need to google flags. Honestly my favorite discovery of the month.

    on Windows PowerShell, curl used to be an alias for Invoke-WebRequest, which doesnt render it the same way, use curl.exe wttr.in to get the real curl.

    ?m forces metric and ?u forces US units. ?0 shows only current weather.
