Odds are good you have a web browser open all the time.

Open a tab to
https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=40.01574000000005&lon=-105.27923999999996

and refresh it when you want to know, or use a browser extension
to auto-refresh once an hour or so.

NWS provides the majority of weather information in the US;
other services just reinterpret it with their preferred biases.
