Quick Start

Current Weather by Station

Get real-time measurements from a specific Swiss weather station:

Option 1: Shell script (no dependencies)

scripts/current_weather_curl.sh --station RAG

Option 2: Python script (requires: pip3 install requests)

scripts/current_weather.py --station RAG

Example output:

Station: RAG
Time: 2026-01-15 11:40 UTC
Temperature (°C)........................ 8.6
Rel. humidity (%)...................... 56.3
Wind speed (km/h)...................... 6.8
Precipitation (mm)..................... 0.0

Popular stations:

  • RAG - Rapperswil (Zurich region)

  • BER - Bern

  • ZRH - Zurich Airport

  • BAS - Basel

  • GVE - Geneva

  • LUG - Lugano

List All Stations

scripts/current_weather_curl.sh --list

# or
scripts/current_weather.py --list

Returns 100+ Swiss weather stations with codes and last update time.

Forecast by Postal Code

Get multi-day weather forecast:

scripts/forecast.py 8640            # Rapperswil-Jona
scripts/forecast.py 8001 --days 7   # Zurich, 7-day forecast

Note: The forecast API may occasionally be unstable. If it fails, fall back to current weather measurements.

Station Selection

Choose the nearest station to your location:

  • Major cities: BER (Bern), ZRH (Zurich), BAS (Basel), GVE (Geneva), LUG (Lugano)

  • Zurich region: KLO (Kloten), RAG (Rapperswil), TAE (Tänikon)

  • Central: LUZ (Lucerne), ALT (Altdorf), ENG (Engelberg)

  • Mountains: SMA (Säntis), JUN (Jungfraujoch), PIL (Pilatus)

Tip: Avoid mountain stations for valley locations due to altitude differences.

See references/api_info.md for complete station list and details.

JSON Output

All scripts support --json flag for programmatic use:

scripts/current_weather.py --station RAG --json
scripts/forecast.py 8640 --json

Advanced Usage

Multiple Stations

Troubleshooting

Forecast API fails: The MeteoSwiss app API occasionally changes. If forecast.py fails, use current weather measurements instead, or check references/api_info.md for alternative methods.

Station not found: Use --list to see available stations. Station codes are 3-letter abbreviations (case-insensitive).

Missing data: Some stations don't measure all parameters. Look for - or N/A in output.

  • swiss-transport: Swiss public transport schedules and connections

  • weather: Generic weather service (wttr.in) - use swissweather for Switzerland
