I have an old script written by David Schronce for the original Big Brother. It grabs a page like this one:
http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/KTUL.html
parses it, looks for key words and send red, yellow or green status messages depending on the results. I made a few modifications to it . It's probably still running at EDS in Tulsa, even if they won't admit it... :-)
I'll tidy it up a bit this evening, make it work with xymon-4.3.x, before releasing it back to the wild.
I had it reporting for a pseudo-host called Weather, with columns for several cities.

Has anyone here ever hooked xymon into any sort of public alert system , such as EMWIN? Are there internet-accessible feeds of this data?
Been searching around for a while, I keep finding commercial services.
thanks Betsy (thinking of all the things that could trigger alerts at our company, this is one of the few that isn't in xymon)
