Forecast: 1-2" of snow, then sleet

Mother Nature: lol, about that...

We're up to a few inches of snow where I am and the storm is still moving through for the next couple of hours. I'm glad I got done all my errands this morning, and stayed out for lunch, since now I'm just chilling at home watching some Hytale on Twitch.

Photo out my kitchen window of a few inches of snow covering tree branches and the railing on my deck in fluffy snow.

                  Exactly one year ago, on 30th December 2024, I laid the foundation of FediMeteo.

                  I took a VM, installed FreeBSD, and set up the first jail to support Italy. The goal was to create a tool for my own use, support a few countries, and announce it.

                  Unexpectedly, the enthusiasm was incredible. That pushed me to keep going, support more countries and cities, and turn it into what it is today.

                  FediMeteo now supports 38 countries and 2,937 cities, with more than 7,700 followers in the Fediverse alone, not counting the many people who follow via RSS feeds or visit the web pages.

                  If you are curious to read the story and some technical details, you can find it here:

                  Today is also Tuesday, a , so I want to say thanks to:

                  • OpenMeteo - @openmeteo@fosstodon.org - for providing accurate, high quality data, without which FediMeteo would be far less useful
                  • @grunfink@comam.es - creator of snac, who made all of this possible using very few resources, on a 4 euro per month VM
                  • FreeBSD, which thanks to the efficiency of the OS and its jail implementation made it possible to run this service in a stable and efficient way with minimal effort
                  All of you, who suggested, encouraged, corrected, and celebrated this project

                  And forward toward supporting more countries and other interesting features already in the works.

                  Happy birthday, FediMeteo! 🎉

                    Globally they're quite rare as a phenomenon but we see loads around here.

On the horizon are some lenticular clouds - clouds stretched into lens shapes by wind, particularly prevalent in the lee of hills.
