I like things like this. Though not as barebones, https://forecast.weather.gov https://forecast.weather.gov does have "Text Only Forecast" listed on your location's forecast page. Looks like this: https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.7603&lon=-111.8882&unit=0&lg=english&FcstType=text&TextType=1 https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.7603&lon=-1... There's also: https://wttr.in/slc https://wttr.in/slc https://wttr.in/slc?format=3 https://wttr.in/slc?format=3 https://v2.wttr.in/slc https://v2.wttr.in/slc https://wttr.in/:help https://wttr.in/:help for all kinds of fun ways to customize it.

Thank you for sharing those! It took more effort to make this than it looks, including finding latitude/longitude coordinates for every US zip code, finding the api url for each one (it is not built into the weather.gov api), and programming everything in a static page with no dependencies. You could literally save this page as a file to your desktop, add the query variable to your local path, and as long as you have internet, the page will fetch a weather forecast for your zip code. This is arguably the most private weather lookup you can do!
