[PHP] Fetching Local Weather

[JB]

Hey Coders,

I know there's a couple premade scripts to grab weather on hotscripts.com. I wanted to 
know if anyone has a simple method to fetch the day's local weather from something 
like yahoo. All I really need is the temperature, condition (rainy, sunny)and maybe 
windspeed. If I could include the icon for the condition that would be good too. 
Anyone have a simple solution for this that I can dump into my code?

Thanks.

Using combinations of:


$string=implode(file("http address"), "");
$array=explode("some starter tag", $string);
$array=explode("some end tag", $array[1]);

$endString=$array[0];

With the odd ereg_replace() to tweak the data you
can grab info from wherever you want.
However, you should get permission from the site,
since this would count as a hit/page view on their site.
