Brolly is a plain‑text weather forecast site that displays current conditions and forecasts in a simple text format. The website, hosted at brolly.sh, lets users view weather information without graphical elements, using data sourced from public weather services. The current temperature is 17.8 °C with a feels‑like temperature of 15.9 °C, partly cloudy conditions, wind at 14 mph (gusts to 28 mph), UV index 0.2, and an air quality index of 15, classified as good. Today’s forecast calls for overcast skies, temperatures between 16 °C and 20 °C, average wind of 12 mph with gusts up to 24 mph, and 0.1 mm of precipitation. The weekly outlook lists conditions for the previous day and the next seven days, showing temperature ranges, wind speeds, and precipitation amounts. Hourly data from 07:00 to 23:00 indicates consistent overcast skies, temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 20 °C, wind speeds between 11 and 17 mph, and no measurable precipitation. Air quality peaks at 21, considered fair, between 13:00 and 14:00, and pollen counts are low for grass and mugwort, with peaks at 14.5 for grass at 22:00 and 6.2 for mugwort at 07:00. The site last refreshed its data at 07:01 and continues to provide a minimalist interface for users seeking straightforward weather information.
