A good opportunity to remind everyone that we finally inboxed curl into Windows 10, so this works (with color output) from a stock Windows command prompt. Better late than never, I hope.
Can you explain more about why you thought this was a good opportunity to interject an advertisement for your product?

Isn't Windows 10 free?
A while back I made something along similar lines, though not quite as useful. curl https://poptart.spinda.net

No need for that. You can do this: (Invoke-WebRequest -Uri wttr.in).content from Powershell. Why not use the happy path?
I honestly can't tell if this is sarcastic or not. I've been typing `curl -O http: ...` into command prompts for decades, and that Powershell incantation looks awfully unwieldy.
In what way is it the happy path?

Why does every parameter have to have consist of a camelcased sentence? I'm a good typist, but I don't think what you wrote is better than
curl wttr.in

Windows is fairly transcendent in our culture, like it or not. It’s not Joe’s-10-person-company-not-relevant-to-99%-of-readers.
I don't think we need to hear about new Windows features on HN posts because they both mention cURL. GP is just taking the chance to advertise. It's like if they commented on the Mac OS X announcements saying "Look, Windows can count to 10 too!" Off topic, against the rules, flag it.
This comment is rude, inaccurate, and not in line with the rules of HN.
