The weather CGI on my capsule is unable to retreive forecasts right now, due to issues in the National Weather Service's API. I'm not sure when this will be fixed. I apologize for the inconvenience! (edited to share correct link) https://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/status/messages/

The API is now functioning normally again. · 4 weeks ago
@aspect The National Weather Service API requires an office and a set of gridpoints (based on lat/long) to return a forecast. To avoid querying for that information every time, I compiled an offline database of US ZIP codes and their corresponding offices and gridpoints. From there script just sends a query to the API and parses the returned JSON, formatting it into gemtext. · 4 weeks ago
