Modify the link below to contain your latitude (textField1) and longitude (textField2). Note that longitude is negative in the U.S. You can get lat and long via google maps or a gps. Don't know how accurate it will be, but where I am it seems to take care of the change due to mountains and elevation pretty well. http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=San+Jose&state=CA&site=MTR&textField1=37.3394&textField2=-121.894&e=0
