Would appreciate being able to embed a weather report for worldwide locations not just the U.S. Thanks

We currently get our weather data from NOAA, which provides an open interface. If you are aware of a non-commercial provider of this data for other countries, please let us know and we'll look into including it.

We have found a good source for worldwide weather, but they make their data available as a rather complicated feed. We are working with them to integrate it into localendar though.

In the meantime, you might be able to import local weather outside the US using iCal (under Import). I found this note online:

Now that you know how to subscribe to calendars, the fun begins. Did you know, for example, that you can "subscribe" to your local weather through a calendar? Go to the Weather Underground. Enter your location. Look in the upper right-hand corner for the "iCal" button. That takes wunderground's data feed and automatically translates it into a format iCal can understand. If you merely click on it, you'll download the data file in ics format which you can import into iCal, but that's only this week's information. Here's the magic: if you "subscribe" to the .ics feed, you'll get automatically updating weather forecasts, right in iCal! So right-click or control-click on the iCal link, and choose "copy link location."

Then go back to localendar, and go to the iCalendar merge page (direct link:http://localendar.com/cal?JSP=CalendariCal)

Paste the url into the iCal url field and click Merge Calendar.
