Wttr.in: Fetch blocked by CORS policy.

[ruijramos]

Hello,
I'm a Mobile Apps Developer and i'm using Ionic Framework to create one.

I've been using Wttr.in for the past 2 months without fails but, yesterday, I came across this error:

Before, everything worked perfectly, and I wasn't expecting to have this error. After searching the Internet, I got the feeling that your server is not accepting external requests.

Interestingly, the request works in python, doing something like that:

import requests
r = requests.get("http://wttr.in?format=j1")
print(r.json())

But when I make an asynchronous request using Javascript or Typescript I get a CORS error - on browser and Android.

Sorry, it was my fault.
Please test it now

$ curl -I wttr.in
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.10.3

If your app is free, give a link to it, and we can add it to the README file

Thanks! Everything works fine now.
My app is a product from the enterprise where I work. :)

Very good! Do you have a link? Let's see it

I close the issue, but the question about the app is still relevant.
If you want to share your app, just post the link!

Hijacking this a bit :)

Found this issue and implemented weather for airports! See for example https://flightnotebook.com/airports/JFK/

Wow! It looks very cool, and maybe #453 would be interesting to you. @mcantsin has disappeared, but the issue is still relevant, and the features should be implemented, so maybe you have some improvement ideas
