I wonder what stuff we currently use for weather info, but the NOAA.gov site has a ftp site with information:
http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/observations/metar/decoded/KBOS.TXT http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/observations/metar/decoded/EFHK.TXT http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/observations/metar/decoded/EGLL.TXT basically a decoded metar file with the filename being the airport location. It looks like this: ------ cut here 8< ------- Boston, Logan International Airport, MA, United States (KBOS) 42-21-38N 071-00-38W 54M Jul 31, 2003 - 07:54 AM EDT / 2003.07.31 1154 UTC Wind: from the SE (130 degrees) at 6 MPH (5 KT):0 Visibility: 10 mile(s):0 Sky conditions: clear Temperature: 64.9 F (18.3 C) Dew Point: 62.1 F (16.7 C) Relative Humidity: 90% Pressure (altimeter): 30.25 in. Hg (1024 hPa) Pressure tendency: 0.02 inches (0.8 hPa) higher than three hours ago ob: KBOS 311154Z 13005KT 10SM CLR 18/17 A3025 RMK AO2 SLP244 FEW AC T01830167 10189 20167 53008 cycle: 12 ----------------------- That looks like easily parseable and those exist for the whole world. They update every half hour. I tried to look for the forecasts, the TAF exists, but it is only for the current day, and that is less useful than a full week would be, so I guess the current conditions is better in that case. If we hack in the weather display, I can make a nice html snippet and do some graphics for that.
