Curious what everyone here uses for their weather app or website of choice ?
Website https://www.meteo.be/ and their app be.irm.kmi.meteo but that’s just Belgium.
Wrote my own digest of NOAA text products. It’s a URL: Gnashtooth’s Weather. Needs US Zip Code. Then bookmark the details page to return. Also, there is a current-conditions page:
LAFAYETTE PURDUE UNIV AIRPORT (KLAF) Temperature: 24.1°F Dewpoint: 12.0°F Wind: NNE at 3 mph Visibility: Unlimited Sky: Mostly clear Barometer: 30.44 inHg Recorded: Sat 07 Feb 2026 11:54 AM Etc/GMT+5 (Sat 07 Feb 2026 16:54 PM Etc/UTC) en: https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/observations/metar/decoded/KLAF.TXTAnd there is a one-liner. You can include the one-liner in your eMail sig if your mail user agent (MUA) allows a shell script. Just download and print:
24° — Wind NNE at 3 mph. Sky mostly clear.`Bura. But I am currently working on my own weather service and might use it more than Bura once it’s done.
No JavaScript, no bullshit, focus on clean design and user experience and full focus on privacy. I publish updates on Mastodon under the hashtag serenum.
Breezy. Because AsteroidOS and Gadgetbridge.
Breezy Weather, avaiable at Fdroid. Have been quite happy with it.
I just keep a shortcut to the NOAA 2day hourly forecast for my location on the home screen. If I need to see the radar it’s a few clicks away.
But I’ve got an air quality and temperature sensor on my back porch, and am working on a rain detector as well, so the preference is towards local conditions
My dudes and dudettes , I’m blown away by the response. I’m going to be busy trying them all out. Thank you for the responses and I hope others found some good insight!
Yeah I have ADHD overload trying to process all the suggestions. Very cool lemmy
Weawow. It’s maintained by a lovely Japanese man who doesn’t sell any of the data or user info. It is one of the best visualized weather applications I have ever seen and lets you pick from a bunch of different models.
It blows Breezy away.
On Mobile the widget from AEMET, the Spanish Meteorology Agency, on Desktop the inbuild weather widget in Vivaldi (home/new tab page)
I use “Windy” in the US. They have over 50 different map overlays.
I use Weawow on mobile and desktop since the UK Met Office created their “new design” for their website.
That’s what I use. You can pick which weather service you use, too. I’m in Canada, but find that Norway meteorology service is good. When the wife and I are comparing forecasts she’ll ask, “What do the Norwegians say”.
Or later, “Your Norwegians never predicted this!”.
I use Cirrus becau I love its ingenious widget: it shows the next 12 hours of weather (not temperature) in a tiny space that’s super easy to read.
KNMI and Yr apps for me. Knmi is dutch and Yr norwegian i believe.
Yr is Norwegian, but afaics they’re pretty good with nearby countries, too. It’s a product of their metreological institute, which seems like a good option privacy-wise. Not that such institutes have to be ad or data ming free, but they usually are.
They are very good for us in the Netherlands!
