 This module is based on scripts from Saratoga-weather.org and shows the weather forecast for next 7 days using the information on the site www.wunderground.com
In the module administration, you can customize this module to your nearby location, so you can get the weather for nearly every city in the world. By using this module with stations in the United States, US Territories or Canada you receive a errormessage. Try for this area our NWS weatherforecast module!
Because of copyrights of Wunderground, you need in order to use this script:
1. Have your weather station submit data to WeatherUnderground as a WU member.
2. Use this script ONLY on your personal, non-commercial weather station website.
3. Leave attribution (and hotlink) to WeatherUnderground as the source of the data.
Adhere to these three requirements, and you should have fair use of this data from Weather Underground.
