Conky weather scripts using Accuweather/WUnderground/NWS/Weather.com

[TeoBigusGeekus]

(FINAL) ANNOUNCEMENT:

All scripts moved to the Arch Linux Forums:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=139962
No further support for them will be provided in this thread, at least not from me.
Thank you all for your support and hope to meet you again in the blue forums.
Farewell...

Thanks a lot dude.
I have the same problem as yours i.e. no forecast for my home town from weather.com
This one works great.
Thanks again

[TeoBigusGeekus]

You're welcome .

It should work. Perhaps some other line in your conkyrc file prevents it from expanding its size.

EDIT:
Did you manage to get it horizontal?

NEW UPDATED VERSION FOR THE NON LAZY

...

Still waiting for them suggestions, applause or abuse...

Thanks for the tips and scripts. I'm really new at linux and openbox.

I tried to use your script (the 2'e) and it worked (after a while) for me.
But I get an strange error where the date shoud be;
prss: Error reading RSS data

Please help.

The rss command couldn't temporarily get any answer from accuweather.
This happens whenever the site is too busy or whenever your connection is too busy (i.e. torrents, mail, heavy surfing, etc.).
Don't worry, it will come after a while.

I think I wait whit the weather-function for a while and look more into the local information on the computer first.

Minor update in the wunderground-script.sh file.
Apparently, Weather Underground has a weather message (Thunderstorm) which doesn't appear in their wunderwiki site
(http://wiki.wunderground.com/index.php/API_-_XML - see forecast condition phrases).
As a result, whenever the forecast showed Thunderstorm as a message, you ended up with a N/A symbol.
Corrected now, just replace the old wunderground-script.sh file with the new one.
