Definately! - I've been starting work on exactly this lately...

Yes, I know there are already several weather scripts available, so this is
re-inventing the wheel a bit, but I've only got as far (so far) as looking
at various sites to pull the weather info from, as I'd like to have the
weather in as succinct a manner as possible.. - I plan to have it spoken as
part of my morning wake-up event, so I'd like it to be literally no more
than about half-a-dozen words... - my favourite format thus far is the one
on www.thisislondon.com, which gives a one-word headline summary, then a
one-sentence detail report...

All I want to know is whether or not I should take a brolly to work that
day!..

However, when I do a GETURL against that page, All I get back is a load of
code - nothing recognisable from the page...

Still trying though, so I'd be interested to see how others have done it...

Paul G.
