Abstract
Systems and methods for providing weather data are adapted to receive requests in a free-form format, such as a text input, and specifying a geographic area. The system is adapted to identify geographic areas likely corresponding to the free-form input and retrieve weather data corresponding to those identified geographic areas from a weather observation location proximate to the geographic area.
