Going to http://weather.yahoo.com/  and searching by ZIP code 02446 gives an
URL

http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?w=12758839

where 12758839 is the RSS WOEID, and the link titled "Full Forecast at Yahoo!
Weather" on that page points to

http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/weather/Brookline__MA/*http://weather.yahoo.com/forecast/USMA0058_f.html

and indeed "USMA0058" works for me. But this would be incredibly confusing for
any new user, since it's different from the 7-digit WOEIDs that naive googling
turns up. Mattia: are those supposed to work as well, for example "2459105" for
New York City? I also came across something indicating that Yahoo is
deprecating use of US Zip codes, so those might not work permanently.
