The US NOAA provides substantial current and recent data.

I wrote this tiny script to grab any given station's current data in an
easy to read text format:

,----< metar >
| #!/bin/sh
| for s in "$@"; do
|  station=$(echo -n "$s"|tr a-z A-Z)
|  curl 
"http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/observations/metar/decoded/${station}.TXT";
|  echo
| done
`----

Try >metar nszp< for a dose of the cold.

http://weather.noaa.gov has a lot of other info, too.  Including
forcasts, radar maps, et cetera.

The station data covers the world; the forcast data may be limited to
the US.
