Usage

Get a forecast.io api key and the lat-long co-ordinates for the location you want.

♣ weatherme -k 17b1e3cae7b68e290654b438553def7e -l 51.8498698,-0.6637842

Data is separated by the pipe symbol allowing formatting by a range of UNIX tools. In this example the API key and lat long co-ordinates are set as environment variables and piped to the column command.

♣ export WEATHERME_LATLON=51.8498698,-0.6637842
