What this skill helps with
OpenClaw’s Weather skill retrieves current weather and forecasts from wttr.in. It prefers the runtime’s web_fetch tool for JSON and describes curl as a fallback when that tool is unavailable.
When to use it
Use it for a local temperature check, rain forecast or ordinary travel planning. Historical climate research and official severe-weather decisions need appropriate archive or local authority sources.
What to bring
Provide a city, region, airport code or coordinates and the period you care about. Use a precise location to avoid returning conditions for a different place with the same name.
What to expect
Expect a summary of available conditions, temperature, precipitation and forecast data for the location. The illustration contains example forecast labels and does not represent live weather.
How the skill works
Identify the location
Confirm the city or coordinates and the relevant dates. Retain enough place context to make the result unambiguous.
Fetch structured conditions
The source recommends compact JSON through web_fetch, covering current conditions and daily forecast values.
Explain the forecast limits
Keep ordinary forecasts separate from severe alerts, aviation or marine guidance. Use official local services when those decisions are involved.

Weather skill questions
Does it require an API key?
The published workflow uses wttr.in requests and does not specify an API key for those requests.
Can it provide historical climate data?
The source directs historical climate or weather requests to an archive or API rather than the normal wttr.in forecast workflow.
