Hi @stefano
Really appreciate your contribution in creating fedimeteo.
I hadn’t tracked its rollout to Canada and have only recently started following for our location.
Since you’ve let us know that you’re open to suggestions, here’s a thought.
I don’t know if your opendata source has this since it’s not internationally standardized, but it would be super helpful and interesting to have air quality forecasts included.
Canada has the AQHI (Air Quality Health Index), established by Health Canada, that’s included in our forecasts from WeatherCan. (Other countries have different composite measures and forecasts.)
Since there have been severe air quality impacts from climate-change related wildfires, Canadians have become more aware of the AQHI and forecasts of poor air quality.
Where such forecasts exist, it would seem that the fediverse would be interested and would want to have them.

@AlsoPaisleyCat Hello! This is an interesting idea - air quality information should be provided by Open-Meteo and maybe I can add it to the current weather conditions. I'll have a look at it. Thank you!

@AlsoPaisleyCat I'm implementing it right now... 🙂
