Скачать или смотреть Open Weather

This week in a shorter summer episode, we explore how open-source tools can turn you into a neighborhood “weatherman.” We start with rtl-433 and a budget RTL-SDR dongle to read data from backyard weather stations (and more), then show how WeeWX builds beautiful dashboards and archives, and wrap with FediMeteo—a Fediverse weather project that scales globally on tiny infrastructure with snac and Open-Meteo.
