There are a number of widgets that allow pre-set address and give the current forecast, but I have a different requirement.

I need to send a date and an address, and get the currently predicted weather for that place.

Is that possible? How could I achieve this? If it matters, I use PHP.

Thanks, Alex

  • For which country? What kind of addresses? Most widgetable weather forecasts I've seen will accept a postal/zip code for location, so getting something like the USPS's master zip code database would be one place to start for American forecasts. – Marc B Feb 22 '11 at 16:31
  • United States and really any format of the address. I have no problem getting postal addresses. I have a problem getting the weather for postal address and specified time. – Genadinik Feb 22 '11 at 16:40

  • The Yahoo api requiers researching their location id ahead of time. That isn't useful for dynamic applications which need to access different addresses. – Genadinik Feb 23 '11 at 21:40
