`curl wttr.in`: Weather in your terminal

Emojis? For the current weather, a single emoji could convey quite a lot; e.g. a snowflake for sub-60 weather (I have a low tolerance for cold), a sun for 60-80, fire emoji for 80+...

Now, I don't know if anyone truly needs the weather in their terminal prompt, but it is doable.

Microcharts or sparklines are another option. I've seen a few implementations along these lines for shell prompts / shell use.

This might be useful for temperature, humidity, wind, preciptitation, and similar measures, either as quantities or timelines.

perhaps the RPROMPT would be better. i usually use it to show time %T.
