Where does the forecast come from?

From Open-Meteo, a free, key-less weather API — there's nothing to set up.

Can I pick a location by airport code?

Yes. Type an ICAO code like CYYZ or an IATA code like YYZ in the Airport field and it overrides the city. A built-in list covers major airports.

What are the bars along the bottom of the graph?

They're the hourly chance of rain: each bar's height is that hour's precipitation probability, so a taller bar means rain is more likely.

Is this good for weather prediction markets?

Yes. It surfaces each day's forecast high and low — what most weather markets settle on — over the next 48 hours, with the full hourly detail a click away.

Can I see every hour, not just the graph?

Yes. Switch the view to the detailed table to read each hour's temperature, feels-like, rain chance and wind.

Yes — Open-Meteo is free with no key, and it runs in your browser with no download.

Hourly Forecast Screensaver

The Hourly Forecast screensaver shows current conditions plus the next 48 hours of temperature — by city or airport code — as a graph with each day's high and low, feels-like and rain chance, or as a detailed hourly table. It's live from the key-less Open-Meteo API, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.

How the Hourly Forecast screensaver works

The saver fetches the current weather and the next 48 hours of hourly forecast for the city — or airport — you choose.

Type an airport code (ICAO like CYYZ or IATA like YYZ) in the Airport field to jump to that airport; leave it blank to use the city dropdown.

The graph plots temperature hour by hour with night shading, each day's high and low, a dashed feels-like line and rain-chance bars — or switch to the table for every hour's detail.

A worked example

Set it to New York — or type an airport like KLGA — and the graph sweeps the next two days: Today ↑29° ↓21°, Tue ↑31° ↓22°, the forecast high marked on the curve. That daily high is exactly what weather prediction markets settle on; flip to the table for the full hourly detail — or open the Weather markets 4-up to watch New York, Chicago, Miami and Austin together.

Settings & tips

Airport code overrides the city — type an ICAO (CYYZ) or IATA (YYZ) code.
View toggles the temperature graph and the detailed hourly table; Units does °C / °F.
The graph's bottom bars show each hour's chance of rain — taller bars mean a higher precipitation probability.
