OpenWeather
OpenWeatherRealBot's own description is refreshingly concise: "Check weather in any place of the World. Instantly. Free." That is the entire pitch, and it is a fair one for a bot whose job is to answer one question quickly — send a city name and get the current conditions back without a menu maze.
The name strongly suggests it is built on the OpenWeatherMap API, one of the most widely used weather data providers for exactly this kind of lightweight integration; if so, expect solid global coverage rather than Russia-specific detail like CBR-adjacent services offer for finance. That makes it a good complement to a regional bot: use a local hydrometeorological bot for your home city and a global one like this for a trip abroad.
There is no mention of ads, a paywall, or account creation in the bio — the stated model is simply free and instant. As with any weather bot, treat forecasts more than a couple of days out as indicative rather than precise, which is true of the underlying data source regardless of the bot wrapping it.
