alias weather='curl wttr.in'

That is really neat. I never knew I needed that.

I found a function version of this version somewhere. Same thing except it defaults to my local area but can be overridden if you specify a different zip code.

weather() {
 if [ $(command -v curl) ]; then
   if ! (($#)); then
     curl wttr.in/44113
   else
     curl wttr.in/$1
   fi
 else
   echo "curl not installed. Aborting."
 fi
}

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
