It seems weird to me that there's no human readable version on the webpage? Usually what I want the weather for is to choose what to wear, not to put in a bash script or an LLM or something.
Made it in about 5 minutes with v0.
Multiple neighborhoods have no data, including Lakeside and Stonestown.
(Thank you to those who maintain public sensors!)
I do notice that in my neighborhood (Noe Valley) a lot of the sensors are very incorrect or often offline. I've resorted to taking the median and throwing outliers away, but even this often doesn't work. This is the challenge of relying on crowdsourced data I suppose...

> I don't understand why it includes indoor sensors at all let alone by default. Add location_type=0 to only get outdoor sensors
or just click the buttons that accomplish the same thing. The point is someone at PurpleAir is asleep at the wheel if such an obvious default configuration isn't being set. If they can't get such a basic thing right, why do we trust anything else from them? "Anything else" specifically including "running their software on a raspberry pi inside my home network".

I use that and Mr. Chilly. Mr. Chilly is one of those niche apps that sparks joy and reminds me of the early app days.
This was directly inspired by Mr Chilly which was designed by my friend Anna Bleker. It's an excellent iOS app: https://mr-chilly.com/ My goal was to do something similar as a Claude Code skill
Only suggestion: separate Inner and Outer Sunset since there can be a massive difference between near Ocean Beach and near Irving/9th Ave in autumn (ie. SF's hottest season).
Edit: nevermind, just saw both inner_sunset and outer_sunset in /neighborhoods. I'd assumed it was merged based on the human readable list on the landing page. Thanks for the fun API!
I made a quick website from this API that shows all of the neighborhoods, searchable, sortable. https://v0-weather-app-one-coral.vercel.app/ Surprisingly, Lands End is the highest temp right now.
Kinda neat!
Love the idea, but tried "japantown" which is mentioned in the README but doesn't exist in the app? https://microclimates.solofounders.com/sf-weather/japantown
note that I also have a system where if the temperature seems outlier compared to direct neighbors it averages the 3 nearest neighbors. this usually occurs in neighborhoods with a single sensor that can skew the results heavily at certain times of the day, etc.

I use Mr Chilly to demonstrate to non-SF folks how many microclimates SF (and the Bay Area has).
