CLI Weather and Forecast

This is a node.js command line tool that will print weather and 5-day forecast information for the user's current (or specified) location.

If the user does not provide a ZIP code as a command-line argument, then the script uses freegeoip to determine the user's location based on their IP address. Location information is then passed to Yahoo's weather YQL API to determine current and future weather.

$ npm install -g cli-weatherman
