~/bin/weathertext | /usr/local/bin/growlnotify -t Weather

`Weather.cgi` is a Python script that does basically the same thing as `weathertext` but generates HTML intended for the iPhone instead of plain text. The main addition is a radar image set between the current conditions and the forecast.

Both these scripts are customized for where I live but can be easily changed by edited the lines that set

1. the NOAA station's name;
2. the zip code for Yahoo! weather; and
3. the URL for the radar image.
