what location are you looking for? unfortunately the usgs/nws list only gives you the field office identifiers. you must then obtain a forecast then scan it to find your location. http://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=NWS&product=PFM&format=txt&issuedby=XXX https://forecast-v3.weather.gov/products/PFM/XXX/1?format=text where XXX is the field office identifier. note that there may be multiple pages for a single field office. TBW has three. the point area forecast for the tampa bay field office (TBW) includes the following location identifiers: FLZ248-240915-BROOKSVILLE-HERNANDO FL FLZ151-240915-TAMPA-HILLSBOROUGH FL FLZ155-240915-SARASOTA-MANATEE FL FLZ052-240915-WINTER HAVEN-POLK FL FLZ265-240915-FORT MYERS-LEE FL FLZ248-240915-BROOKSVILLE-HERNANDO FL FLZ151-240915-TAMPA-HILLSBOROUGH FL FLZ155-240915-SARASOTA-MANATEE FL FLZ052-240915-WINTER HAVEN-POLK FL FLZ265-240915-FORT MYERS-LEE FL FLZ248-232200-BROOKSVILLE-HERNANDO FL FLZ151-232200-TAMPA-HILLSBOROUGH FL FLZ155-232200-SARASOTA-MANATEE FL FLZ052-232200-WINTER HAVEN-POLK FL FLZ265-232200-FORT MYERS-LEE FL for the forecast extension, just specify the first 6 characters. NOAA is working on a new api for their forecasting and other services: https://forecast-v3.weather.gov/documentation when that stabilizes i might be able to zip code or lat/lon instead of foid+lid. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
