Weather Underground API no longer available #7

The documentation refers you to http://api.wunderground.com/weather/api/ but since Weather Underground has been acquired by IBM, they are no longer offering any type of free API access (surprise, surprise). From what I can see, the only packages they are offering are very expensive.

Have you looked into WeatherAPI?

https://www.weatherapi.com

API keys are free for 1M requests per month, has 3-day forecasts, and it appears to offer most if not all the same data points that the old WU did when it was free.

I've been putting together my own weather reader for Sync, and have been tinkering a lot with this API as a source.
