I found a site called Github.com. It indicates that it has the source for raspberrypi/lxpanel/weather. I am using lxpanel as the desktop and choose it's weather app. It uses yahoo weather and seems fairly accurate. I am a beginner. Can anyone confirm that Github has the actual source for the lxpanel...

a tip: rather than trying to parse html, look for a weather site that offers a data feed, say to a widget or app or something. it'll be much easier to parse. There are great weather sites by city and state in the USA at weather.gov that are xml sites. Example: http://w1.weather.gov/xml/current_obs/...

I would like to use the raspberry with C and get local humidity from a weather web site.
There are many weather web sites that give this information.
Can someone point me to examples of getting and reading web sites in C.
