Hi. I am using your scripts weather . I think an excellent script. but I have a question? on the line: id=${CITY_ID}&appid=${API_KEY} I have to replace my CITY_ID by the city, and API_KEY , which has given me the site http://api.openweathermap.org ? appreciate your help !

Hey @elhackerlibre it seems like they have changed their website! Type in your city name here: http://openweathermap.org/ And then on the result page the weather id is in the URL.

Example for London: http://openweathermap.org/city/2643743

So 2643743 is the city ID. The API_KEY you get when you register there.
