Is there a Perl module to get the avg. temperature for any given zipcode? For instance, Wikipedia has the Avg. high, avg. low & daily mean temperature for Los Angeles.
I’d like to do this in Perl somehow but can’t find a module to do this (e.g. type in 10001 and get the avg. temp. for New York).
Searching CPAN for “weather” gives you a ton of options including Google Weather, weather.com and Weather Underground.
Most of these are just fetching a URL and parsing the resulting XML or JSON. So if you don’t want to use the modules you can do it manually using LWP::Simple and either XML::Simple or JSON::Any to parse the result.
