Agreed.  Weather is probably "pointless" on Internet radio.  But for those who run a terrestrial radio station, serving a small community and using Radio DJ, weather is important, IMHO.  I'm able to provide weather reports, including the current temperature, thanks to pointers provided by Jeff "The Radio DJ Dude."  I'd recommend checking him out on YouTube.  Answers may be found there.

Jeff Scott, aka 'RadioDJ Dude' is super-talented and has come up with a way to automate weather forecasts on your station. I am currently doing this because I run a low-power transmitter that serves a small area. I'm not sure if there is a way to do an automated temperature periodically, but one of videos also explains the 'Say Time' plug-in. https://youtu.be/XxP93K3fye0?si=jMhO4YmNPmDYy8VU

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I really appreciate it! I do have a couple vids on automating weather reports. For most internet stations, this is useless. BUT, many peeps have community internet stations that serve a specific region, so weather becomes more relevant.

Go to my channel and search "weather". The forecast is looking good for RadioDJ weather reports!  :)
