No, but they have weather stations. I've been searchig for an international XML feed, but I haven't found one yet. If somebody knows of one, let me know, I might try my hand at it.

another thing someone can do if they're bored is write a quick javascript parser that just grabs data straight out of pages from weather.com or wunderground.org

i've been using this technique for ski report pages/applications on the desktop for years now.

Yes The Netherlands / Germany uses zipcodes.
exampels Net. 5866BD / Germany 45324.

But I had the same thought as Jafo wenn it get the info from the same site as Systemtirx you got worldwide support. Maby there is wa way to copy / change the original script.

Thanks
