Re: Are their other Working Weather Scripts?

Why not just grab the current page by using curl or wget or similar tools 
to your home directory?

The mobile version of  underground has all the weather/forcast info on one 
page.  This makes it ideal for one of the grab tools.

Here is a nearby location to me, near the bottom is a text entry field
where one can put a zip code or location by name.  That will get the exact
url for your location for grabbing.

http://mobile.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?brand=mobile&query=oakland,%20pa

A simple shell script would do it.
