What Pogodnik does
Pogodnik is a weather service that has run Pogodnik.com since 2009 and publishes forecasts and weather news in English, Ukrainian and Russian. Its product page links @pogodnik_pogoda_bot as the site's Telegram bot, which makes this one of the few weather bots here with a known owner.
You start by typing the name of your city. The vendor's English screenshot shows what comes back: the current temperature with "feels like", pressure, humidity and wind, an air quality index and a geomagnetic K-index, then the forecast hour by hour for the rest of the day, with buttons for tomorrow, 7 days, 10 days and a month. A second screenshot shows the same layout in Ukrainian. In the settings you choose a time for a daily forecast, for example before work, and the bot sends short warnings when it expects a sharp change such as a downpour, strong wind, a pressure jump or a cold snap.
The bot also works in group chats and channels: an admin adds it, it posts the weather there, and a reply to its message brings updated weather. It is free, with no plans mentioned. The forecast is Pogodnik's own model output, so for a storm or flood warning in your country, rely on the national weather service first.

FAQ
Can it send me the forecast every morning?
Yes. Pogodnik's product page says you can set a convenient time for the daily forecast in the bot's settings, for example 7 am, or ask for tomorrow's forecast in the evening instead.
Does it warn about bad weather?
It sends short notices about sharp changes it expects, such as rain, wind, pressure jumps or a cold snap. These are the service's own forecasts, not official warnings from a national weather agency.
