You can also go to
www.weatherunderground.com and go to the, I can't remember if it
says Pda or Text only link, then follow the links to your
country, state city etc and get your local forecast.

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Suggestion of improvement for next
upgrade
My suggestion of where to get weather isn't as good as the
avantgo service suggested for implementation on the BrailleNote,
but I certainly prefer it over the weather channel. Try the
www.noaa.gov website if you live in the United States. I can't
figure out how to get the starting page for the national weather
service local forcasts, so I will just provide a link to my local
weather and you can enter your zipcode on the page that appears
to get your local forcast and current weather conditions. Once
you get your local weather page you should then save it as a
favorite for quick access whenever you want weather information
and have Internet access.

You can also go to http://www.crh.noaa.gov/crh/ and pick your
area and go through the pages until you get your precise location
pinpointed. I think my first suggestion is faster, though.
