It's amazing how much energy has been injected into the FediMeteo project by @stefano
I've just surfed to the page and saw this enormous amount of Cities which are now covered
Two Thousand nine hundred and eight cities!
Yes you've read that right 2908 cities.
In order to get a city up and running in the system there's a significant amount of code that Stefano needs to add to the system. He has of course written everything in a modular and scalable manner, but that does not make the work any less.
We should all be thankful for this work that is done so that people from thousands and thousands of cities can see their weather right in the FediVerse.
If your city has not been covered yet, just be patient, like me. Realize how much work Stefano does in his free time in an OpenSource manner.

This gorgeous photograph was just presented to me by my weather program
Of course the credits go to the photographer who was a Lucky enough to capture this beautiful moment in sunset 🌇. The name is in the image
Weather is also natively given to us in the Fediverse by @admin who often adds countries by the week; jump to see if yours is in The Matrix already. Many are included and the work is a lot to do, yet @stefano does this for us all in his free time.
Shoutout to #FediMeteo @admin and @stefano for the #RSS and #ActivityPub #federated #weather service. Finally, a reliable weather tool across platforms.
A week or so ago I reached out and they added my community. Every time the new weather report post or RSS feed comes through, I appreciate it so much.
Thanks again! #WX #Fediverse
The more technical self-hosters out there may be interested in this blog post about how @stefano created a global Fediverse weather service using a €4 VPS:
You can find FediMeteo's website at https://fedimeteo.com and follow updates from the service at @admin
When people first started joining the Fediverse in large numbers, a lot of them asked "Where are the weather accounts?"
If you're one of those people, please check out the FediMeteo project at:
It has weather forecast accounts for cities and towns across almost all of Europe and North America, plus Australia, New Zealand and Japan.
To follow an account, click on a town or city, then copy-paste its address into the search box in Mastodon etc.
On this first milestone, I want to thank everyone for embracing my idea so enthusiastically. And we're just getting started!
Stefano
