Google Weather
Get location specific weather data using Google's Weather API

Usage:
1. gweather()
2. gweather('place') Ex. gweather('Goa')
3. gweather(lat,long) Ex. gweather(15.563,73.818)
(lat,long in decimal degrees)

Besides printing the current conditions and the forecast, the function
returns the forecast information in a structure. (Output)

Sample Output:

Location:Natick,MA
Current Conditions:
3°C, 86% Humidity, Light rain

Forecast:
Thu: -7°C to 3°C, Icy
Fri: 0°C to 2°C, Mostly Sunny
Sat: 0°C to 10°C, Rain
Sun: -6°C to 6°C, Cloudy

Note
Apparently, the Google Weather XML Feed is not officially supported.
Use of lat,long often provides unreliable results.
