Show HN: Weather2Geo – Geolocate screenshots from weather widgets

Summary

Weather2Geo Overview Weather2Geo is a focused OSINT tool that turns weather widget leaks into geolocation data. People post screenshots with the Windows weather widget in their taskbar all the time, showing the exact temperature, weather condition, and local time. This tool uses the same API as the widget to find cities where those conditions are currently true. ⚠️ This tool works best if used shortly after the screenshot is posted. Conditions change fast.
