Hey all,
I was 'tinkering' around with HTTPRequest and I tried to retrieve the weather data from WeatherBug. More specifically, I was try to get the script to get the weather data for today from a zip code. If anyone can tell me if this is even possible, that'd be great.

I took a quick look at WeatherBug and nothing jumped out at me as it being something that was intended to be accessed programatically.
You might have better luck (and far less work) getting data from somewhere like NOAA. They have services that are designed to be accessed by scripts.. Possibly a good place to start reading: http://www.weather.gov/xml/ _____________________
