I need to display weather feeds on a site in a nice image kind of way...
I am only given the city/province of the user via IP lookup table so ideally the web service would allow me to query the weather for a given region using those variables.
I have looked into TheWeatherNetwork and NOAA and neither offer a web service, ideas?
Weather feeds?

Environment Canada has RSS feeds for Canadians. NOAA is just the US.
Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to understand.

Re: Weather feeds?
One of the caveats I really need to stress is that the location must be programmable.
Many weather sites/RSS feeds, etc I have looked into require you to sign up and select the city at that point, making their services useless for a web site that wishes to offer weather to members all around the world.
