What This Skill Does

The Weather skill provides OpenClaw users with real-time meteorological data and forecasts directly within the terminal interface. It leverages community-maintained weather services to fetch current conditions, temperature, and atmospheric status for any location worldwide. By integrating this skill, your agent can provide context-aware weather updates to streamline your planning, task automation, or simple informational queries without ever leaving the workspace.

Installation

To integrate this utility into your OpenClaw environment, execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/fobonacci404/evilweather

Ensure that you have the latest version of OpenClaw installed to maintain compatibility with the skill repository. Once installed, the skill will be automatically indexed by your agent for immediate use.

Use Cases

This skill is highly effective for developers working across different time zones who need to monitor weather conditions in remote server locations. It is also excellent for personal productivity, allowing you to check if it is suitable to work outdoors or if an incoming storm might affect your local power grid. Additionally, automation scripts can use this skill to conditionally trigger tasks, such as delaying a server backup if severe weather alerts are detected in a specific region.

Example Prompts

1. "Check the current weather in Tokyo and tell me if I should bring an umbrella."
2. "What is the five-day weather forecast for New York City?"
3. "Is it going to be sunny in San Francisco this weekend?"

Tips & Limitations

While the primary weather service provided is highly reliable, it is a free community-based project and may occasionally experience downtime or rate limiting. Users should note that the accuracy of the forecast depends on the underlying data provided by the service provider. For critical infrastructure, ensure you implement fallback mechanisms in your logic. Always verify specific location names if the agent returns ambiguous results, as some smaller towns may share names with larger metropolitan areas. Avoid using this skill for high-frequency automated polling to ensure you respect the service provider's usage terms and maintain stable performance for other community members.
