Quick Start

Search a location (3+ chars) → Enter to open forecast → D / G to flip between graph and data table → Cmd+R to refresh.

Search

Uses OpenStreetMap Nominatim. Understands date tokens mixed with location names:

  • Weekday — "Oslo fredag", "Oslo friday"
  • Next week — "London next monday"
  • Day of month — "Bergen 25" (within 9-day window)
  • Relative — "Paris tomorrow", "Paris i morgen"

English and Norwegian (Bokmål). Diacritics normalized ("søndag" = "sondag"). For date-specific forecasts, graphs include context padding (last point before the selected day and first point after) to avoid abrupt edges.
