Yahoo! weather without WOEID.

try this feed. replace Helsinki with Paris, Texas or whatever.

for metric units and Celsius degrees use:

Code: Select all

URL="http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select * from weather.forecast(0,1) where woeid in (select woeid from geo.places where text="Helsinki") and u="c"&format=xml&env=store://datatables.org/alltableswithkeys"

for imperial units and Fahrenheit degrees use:

Code: Select all

URL="http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select * from weather.forecast(0,1) where woeid in (select woeid from geo.places where text="Helsinki") and u="f"&format=xml&env=store://datatables.org/alltableswithkeys"

Works nice. Very clever indeed.

Just need to be careful that you understand that the information returned, and thus the RegExp needed, is different than:

[Variables]
Location=2378074
Unit=f

[MeasureWeather]
...
URL=http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=#Location#&u=#Unit#

updated the original post, as there has been a change in YQL.
