    Weather Forecast Spreadsheet

    Hello all! For the past couple of years every friday I have been manually passing weather forecast information into an excel spreadsheet to plan out my week.

    Now I recently heard about the wonders of VBA and I'm wondering how could I pass the information for 7 days ahead if it's actually possible!

    I have been using accuweather and metoffice.gov.uk for the forecast, I find they are pretty accurate. I tried a web query but it's not allowing me to take it as a table. Here's the link.

    http://www.accuweather.com/en/us/hou...197?view=table
    http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/w...orld/9vk4qr24r

    Any ideas? Or if any of you know of any tabular forecast websites that allow the web query that would be great!

    Thank you in advance.

    Re: Weather Forecast Spreadsheet

    You are right! I will attach the solution I got so far. It has been with the help of other users of forums including this one! Any input on how to improve it would be great! I am also looking to add to this a way for the user to give a custom name to the latitude/longitud combination. So for example, add a final column that for latitude/longitude 29.9857, -95.3324 it will say "IAH" for the respective rows. Then for latitude/longitude 21.332,-157.9198 it will say "HNL".

    There are a few add-ins in AppSource that do this now. It will pull the data directly into your sheet for you. Just search AppSource for "weather in excel". I tried the Visual Crossing one and that did what I needed. Try a few out until you find what you need.

    Your response to a five year old thread will probably go unnoticed by the original poster. After all, it was posted and looking for help five years ago. We appreciate your help, but try to keep your posts to current activity.
