[ghost]

Do you have any script which can be used to fetch local weather and temperature of a location and display it in indicator-sysmonitor

Perhaps you could install my-weather-indicator:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/atareao
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install my-weather-indicator

you could use a script like this to get the weather....

@Bernmeister Thanks for the suggestion but I dont want to install another app for that. @fossfreedom suggestions seems to work. I will try to write my own script and post the script here :)

@fossfreedom This is script I made for fetching local weather from accuweather. It still has some bugs

#!/bin/sh

#Inorder to prevent banning of our IP from accuweather; Only once the web page is called
#It updates only on the reboot

#Prevent multiple instance of this shell script
PIDFILE=/tmp/`basename $0`.pid
if [ -f $PIDFILE ]; then
  if ps -p `cat $PIDFILE` > /dev/null 2>&1; then
            exit
  fi
fi
echo $$ > $PIDFILE
trap 'rm -f "$PIDFILE" >/dev/null 2>&1' EXIT HUP KILL INT QUIT TERM
