Some web development may be required. And/or maybe some local scripts to pull the data from the API. Here's one I found with a quick search on Bing: http://openweathermap.org/API.

My personal experience has been with PHP, and this could be done in PHP. Also, will you want to store this data in your DB?

Someone did this with an SSIS script.

Bear in mind this was from 2013, so the API may have changed since then.
