Get Weather Using VBA
I was just browsing the article 15 things you can do with RSS and noticed that WunderGround provides an RSS feed for weather (the option is available after doing a search).
Knowing that RSS is consumable with Excel (XML versions), I whipped up a barebones* example of getting the current and daily forecasted weather into Excel.
You can download the Weather Spreadseet here.
Simply enter a City and State and hit the “Get Weather” button. If the inputs are valid, your spreadsheet will return data looking something like this:
Looks like possible rain for the running of the derby today 😉
*This is a barebones example to demonstrate how to get weather into Excel. I included only an “On Error Resume Next” instead of detailed error handling, and the weather is returned as single string (ideally this string would be parsed).
