There is also Yahoo, which uses The Weather Channel. Their official
interface is documented at http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/ This
returns a three day forecast. However, there is an undocumented
interface that returns a five day forecast. See
http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/forecastrss/UKXX0718_c.xml for an example
forecast.
I have a python script that uses the undocumented interface, which I'll
put on Github when I have tidied it up a bit. It doesn't look too hard
to adapt the current googleweather.el script to use Yahoo.
Ian.
