JP Weather
JP Weather is a module to display the USA weather on a page. No ads, just weather. The forecasts are specified by zip code on the administrator page.
It uses intelligent caching so that once it reads any weather data it will keep it until the next refresh of module data. This is useful because weather.gov only allows you to read the forecast once an hour, and the current conditions every ten minutes. Without the caching your viewers will do too many page refreshes, get you banned from the weather site and your page will show a broken module. That does not happen with JP Weather's intelligent caching.
Weather is displayed in customizable templates to your page.
The module is free with registration. We will keep your email private and only email you about important stuff unless you tell us to stop. It's that simple.
We hope you enjoy the simplicity and quality of our first release, JP Weather.

The current conditions are giving images with a .png extensions...which do not exist in the .zip file, or anywhere. So now they're modifed to be .jpg, because the NWS is deeply stupid.

NOAA's listing of stations is completely weird. We now do it a different way. Also we organize the list better.
When using day/night split forecasts and day doesn't exist anymore, we now fake it with the total.
Better explanations of config options.

weather.gov has decided it doesn't need to encode & in their XML. So we need to handle that.
