Zurich Badi & Water Temperature Skill
This skill provides real-time information about Zurich's outdoor pools (Freibäder), river pools (Flussbäder), and lake beaches (Seebäder). It includes dedicated alerts and recommendations tailored for:
- Ironman Swimming (Utoquai): Tracking morning status and water temperature for early swims.
- Family Outings (Heuried, Mythenquai, Tiefenbrunnen): Checks the outside temperature using a live weather feed and recommends going if it is above 25°C.
- Limmat Canotto/Dinghy Floating: Checks the live river flow rate (BAFU station 2099 - Zürich Unterhard) and issues safety warnings (discharge must be <= 100 m³/s).
Usage
Activate this skill when the user asks about:
- Water temperature of Zurich's lake, Limmat, or specific outdoor pools (e.g., Utoquai, Letten, Heuried).
- Going down the Limmat in an inflatable boat/dinghy ("canotto" or "bööteln").
- Weather-based pool recommendations.
Lake Zurich Microclimates
- West vs. East Side: The West Side of the Lake (e.g., Seebad Enge, Strandbad Mythenquai) is typically 1-2°C warmer than the East Side (e.g., Seebad Utoquai, Strandbad Tiefenbrunnen) due to prevailing winds, sun exposure, and water current patterns. Keep this geographical nuance in mind when choosing a swimming spot.
- Disconnected Pools (e.g. Heuried): Pools not directly fed or tempered by the lake have a different water temperature cycle. They are highly sensitive to direct solar irradiation and air temperature, warming up and cooling down much faster than the large thermal mass of the Zürichsee.
Water Temperature Brackets
Water temperatures are color-coded with custom indicators based on comfort levels:
- 🔴 Red (
< 18°C): Very fresh / cold (typical for early season or deep lake/river). - 🟠 Orange (
18°C - 19°C): Refreshing (good for active swimming). - 🟡 Yellow (
20°C - 24°C): Comfortable (ideal for family lake swimming). - 🟢 Green (
25°C+): Warm (typical for highly solar-irradiated pools like Heuried).
Utility Scripts
The skill includes a powerful Python CLI utility located in scripts/badi_info.py which fetches and parses live XML data from the City of Zurich, BAFU flow data, and Zurich weather:
Subcommands
1. Summary
Provides a high-level summary of your favorite pools, outside temperature, and Limmat floating safety:
uv run scripts/badi_info.py summary
2. List All Badis
Lists all available outdoor pools, river pools, and lakes:
# List all
uv run scripts/badi_info.py list
# Filter by type (lake, river, pool)
uv run scripts/badi_info.py list --type lake
# Show only currently open badis
uv run scripts/badi_info.py list --open
3. Search Badi
Search for a specific pool by name:
uv run scripts/badi_info.py search utoquai
Common Mistakes
- German Umlauts: Use "zurich-badi-info" (without 'e') instead of "zuerich-badi-info" to match the user's preference.
- Metric System Only: Ensure all temperatures are displayed strictly in Celsius (°C) and flow rates in cubic meters per second (m³/s).
