Weather by ZIP or City
Current conditions and a forecast for any ZIP code or city, as a block, a widget or a shortcode. No API key needed.
What it does
Either works, and the ZIP lookup resolves the location locally.
Whichever fits how your site is built.
Current conditions plus three, five or seven days.
Optionally use the visitor's own location instead of a fixed one.
Sensible cache windows so traffic does not become a request storm.
Inherits your colours rather than imposing its own.
Local businesses, churches, schools and event sites all want the same small thing on the page: what is the weather doing here.
Drop in a block, a widget or a shortcode, give it a ZIP code or a city, and it shows current conditions plus a multi-day forecast. It uses open weather data, so there is no API key to obtain and no per-call cost — and it caches, so a busy page does not turn into a stream of outbound requests.
