icao airport weather for anywhere
if you know the ICAO airport code (not the IATA one) then you can get
the weather for the airport or city http://www.airport-technology.com/icao-codes/A.html http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/YBAS.html (YBAS for Alice Springs Australia http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/KPHX.html (KPHX for Phoenix Arizona) the airpot code must be in all CAPS as the host is a Unix machine and its case sensitive. May just be one of them cray supercomputers because the returns from this web site are usually very fast. great for flight planning or for planning a trip In the US the IATA and ICAO codes are similar LAX and KLAX or JFK and KJFK for example. using the link above you can also get the wx for GA (General aviation) airports too like KCHD (Chandler Municipal) KBLH (Blythe California) so if you will be near an airport that reports wx but not a place where jets normally land then use the closest identifier of course airnav.com is useful for looking up airport codes too. duats is good for right before takeoff but for planning what to wear etc this is great JOHN |

AFAIK virtually every airport has an ICAO code, but a large number, if not the majority, do not have IATA codes. These include most military airfields and a huge number of airfields that have no regular commercial traffic. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_airports |
