Integrating Weather Reports into a Webserver?

meteorologist asks: "I work at a small college (300 students) in a small town (1500 people), and on our website we have a weather section. The problem is that it can only get weather information from a town 40 miles away. There is one local reporting station, but it reports exclusively to weatherbug, which slows down computers, and inevitably leads to spyware infections. How do I go about setting up a weather meter (temperature, humidity, wind velocity, and so forth) so that its results can be integrated into an already established website?"

    First of all, was that even English? Second, I don't see why that particular post earned a -1 on its own (de)merits; however, I notice that the parent poster has a solid history of -1's.

    This brings me to my third question (off topic): why would someone keep posting in account that has been flagged to start at -1? Just make a new account, dude.
