I live in San Francisco and we get some beautiful sunsets here! Over the past few weeks, I cobbled together a system of alerts for when the sunset is predicted [1] to be particularly outstanding, resulting in this page that displays the prediction and also shows the current view from several cameras around the city.

[1]: Predictions are LLM-powered largely to more reliably consume the free-text descriptions in traditional (e.g., NWS) weather forecasts of predicted high and low cloud cover around sunset.
