That is a list of all of my folders. I need zip files created of all of those files. I can get everything I need when I do find -maxdepth 1
It will show all of those directories. Now. I need to zip the contents of those directories. to zip files. named after the folder they came out of. So. all the files in weather-system, would come out as a zip file. which has the contents of weather-system in the weather-system.zip. without the folder called weather system inside. so. instead of

weather-system.zip
-weather-system(D)
-Files and such

I need
weather-system.zip
-Files and such

If you have any idea how to do it. I would be in a much better shape.

I have been trying something like
find -maxdepth 1 -exec zip {} {}/* \;
but. that looks ridiculous. and doesn't work
