Summary: Weather does not return correct information

Initial Comment:
The weather plugin does not return the correct weather information. For 
example: for Los Angeles the following URL is parsed by the weather plugin:

http://www.msnbc.com/m/chnk/d/weather_d_src.asp?acid=USCA0638

This data is corretly parsed, but the data does not always match:

http://weather.msn.com/local.aspx?wealocations=wc:USCA0638

Reloading the first URL a number of times, generates different results, but 
never the correct results.

Perhaps the plugin could monitor the RSS feed of msnbc?

I notice the same when doing the i18n changes to the plugin (Feature
Request #1621819).

The weather plugin could use Pymetar
http://www.schwarzvogel.de/software-pymetar.shtml for receiving
information from National Weather Service but we'll lose the four day
forecast.

If someone is interested I could add the code for selecting between the
actual code and PyMetar fetched data.
