Hi John,
You could use a dictionary to store the functions. For example:
import module_a
import module_b
rain_functions = { 1:module_a.get_rain, 2:module_b.get_rain }
Then you could call the function as:
x = forecast()
points = x.getPoints()
for point in points:
rain_functions[point]()
Hope this helps,

John.
