Hi Steve,

Weather.com has a good XML feed that provides forecasts for up to 5 days in
advance. I think they're pretty OK about usage (the usuals - display their
logo, non commercial etc).

I've used it in the past and I have to say it's a dream to use!

I'd like to just add another voice to the call for XML feeds. It's much
easier to parse with the abundance of libraries. Also, off-topic, but any
chance of the Weather feed (XML aussi) being added? The GNOME-UK team would
like to use it.
