Seeing a text-based weather report takes me back about 34 years! In 1992, I was finishing my Ph.D. in neuroscience at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. During breaks from dissertation writing, I spent a fair amount of time on the lab computer. One project that I undertook for fun was writing a Bourne shell script to access data from Weather Underground. While this project never led to 15 minutes (or even nanoseconds) of fame, the shell script did get used by a number of other sites.
It's great to see that there's still a use for plain-text weather!
