Try 

https://api.weather.gov/points/42.934,-90.567

wherever the hell that is. You're in the western hemisphere and longitudes 
are negative.

The browser should show the JSON formatted so you can grab the 'forecast' 
URL

https://api.weather.gov/gridpoints/ARX/88,22/forecast

and get the daily forecasts. Doesn't look like paradise. Curiosity got the 
better of me -- it's Left Moose Nut, Wisconsin.
