Примгидромет | Бот
MoussonBot is the Telegram bot of Примгидромет, the Primorsky Hydrometeorological Service, and its own bio states plainly that it provides the population with weather information based on data from the Приморское УГМС (Primorsky Directorate for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring). That makes it one of the few weather bots in this list that can genuinely claim an official government meteorological source rather than a generic aggregator API — a real advantage for accuracy if you live in or travel to Primorsky Krai.
The trade-off is scope: this is a regional service, covering Vladivostok and the surrounding Far East, not a national or global forecast bot. If your city is outside that area, the forecast either will not be available or will not be the bot's focus, so this is a purpose pick rather than a general-purpose weather tool.
Being run by a state hydrometeorological body also means there is no commercial upsell to worry about — no premium tier, no ads-for-access model — the bot exists to distribute public weather information, which is exactly the kind of "official" source this catalog tries to surface first when one exists.
