There are quite a few options, it is pretty cool. You can check them out by hitting the :help endpoint[1].
I usually call it with a few of them to make the output cleaner, and without colors[2].
curl --compressed https://wttr.in/"$location"?QTAF
Where `$location` is either the location you want the weather for, or an IP address.
