If you're a fan of wttr.in, the beloved ASCII weather service that works in your browser and in your terminal, you already appreciate simple, ad-free weather tools. wttr.in delivers forecasts in plain-text glory, free from ads, popups, and the usual modern web clutter.
But maybe you're looking for something different. Something with the same geeky soul, but with a touch more style and variety. That's where LuxWeather comes in.
Why Look Beyond wttr.in?
wttr.in is brilliant for quick, terminal-based forecasts and clean ASCII graphics, but it has its limits:
- One presentation style: ASCII output is charming, but it's not for everyone.
- No visual variety: If you want something whimsical or more themed, you're out of luck.
- Limited casual appeal: Non-terminal users may find it less approachable.
For many, that's fine, but if you want a similarly minimalist, ad-free weather site with more presentation options, LuxWeather is the perfect next stop.
Meet LuxWeather
LuxWeather is a free weather site featuring pixel-art TV channels that show your forecast in beautifully themed styles.

But unlike wttr.in, LuxWeather offers a wide variety of themed channels, from cozy pixel-art living rooms to fantasy landscapes, with more available for Premium users.
