I tried getting that to work with ANSI but didn't have much luck.

curl -s wttr.in/?n | iconv -f utf-8 -t cp437//translit

Kind of works but it looks like it's using ICE colours which means blinking on some terminals (e.g. mine).  Also some of the character translations don't always line up.

I recall there was someone posting these in genan awhile back in full glorious ANSI, but I haven't seem those in a long time.  I'd be interested in knowing how he converted those.
