[kwlug-disc] Weather Forecast in Ubuntu variants

[Khalid Baheyeldin]

For more granular weather (hour by hour, including cloud cover, yes, for
astronomy), I use this site.

It is just a front end for the Meteorological Institute of Norway. It is
the same data that the XFCE Weather plugin uses.

https://www.yr.no/place/Canada/Ontario/Rummelhardt/hour_by_hour_detailed.html

They have an app for Android (YR.NO). I use it more and more ever since TWN
messed up their UI.

There is also this site:

https://darksky.net/forecast/43.4,-80.5/ca12/en

And there are apps that use the same data source, including Arcus for
Android.
