# Echorune Radar

> Reads live weather for any place on earth, including radar rendered as text characters instead of an image: current conditions, a short forecast, a 2-hour rain sparkline, and a character radar map with the measured motion of the echo. Use when the user asks about weather, temperature or a forecast somewhere, whether it is raining, whether rain is coming, when it will start or stop, how far away a storm is or which way it is moving - and whenever answering well would otherwise mean looking at a radar picture.
