Hi TatianaK,<br><br>The <em>weather.forecast</em> table uses the old <em>p=&lt;location&gt;</em> style of requests to the Yahoo! Weather RSS feed. &nbsp;This parameter must be a US zip code or a &quot;weather location ID&quot; as described in the old documentation [1].<br><br>An alternative is to make use of the contributed data tables, in particular&nbsp;<em>weather.woeid</em> (if you can&#39;t see this in the console, be sure to click &quot;Show Community Tables&quot;). An example query for your Bratislava WOEID looks like:<br><br>&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<span style="font-family:'Courier New';">select channel.item.condition.text from weather.woeid where w=818717;<br></span><br>(<a href="http://y.ahoo.it/nu+6C">Try this query in the YQL console</a>)<br><br><br>The above uses the newer <em>w=&lt;woeid&gt;</em> style of requests for the feed, as currently documented [2].<br><br>[1]&nbsp;http://web.archive.org/web/20091002014544/http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/<br>[2]&nbsp;http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/<br><br><br><div class="quote "><div class="quotetop ">QUOTE<cite>(TatianaK @ 2 Dec 2011 4:27 AM)</cite><blockquote class="quotemain">&quot;fixed&quot; this by using&nbsp;<br>select item.condition.text from weather.forecast where location in (<br> select id from weather.search where query=&quot;Bratislava, Slovakia&quot;<br>)<br>that I found on some blog.
