Wrote my own digest of NOAA text products. It's a URL: Gnashtooth's Weather. Needs US Zip Code. Then bookmark the details page to return. Also, there is a current-conditions page:

    LAFAYETTE PURDUE UNIV AIRPORT (KLAF)
    Temperature:    24.1°F
    Dewpoint:       12.0°F
    Wind:           NNE at 3 mph
    Visibility:     Unlimited
    Sky:            Mostly clear
    Barometer:      30.44 inHg
    
    Recorded: Sat 07 Feb 2026 11:54 AM Etc/GMT+5 (Sat 07 Feb 2026 16:54 PM Etc/UTC)

    en: https://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/observations/metar/decoded/KLAF.TXT

And there is a one-liner. You can include the one-liner in your eMail sig if your mail user agent (MUA) allows a shell script. Just download and print:

    24° — Wind NNE at 3 mph. Sky mostly clear.`
