im still fine tuning my menu bar icons...and for the life of me, i cant get the temp to work yet on geektool after trying several different scripts.

try this for the temp and conditions.

Code:
curl --silent "http://xml.weather.yahoo.com/forecastrss?p=ZIPCODE&u=f" | grep -E '(Current Conditions:|F<BR)' | sed -e 's/Current Conditions://' -e 's/<br \/>//' -e 's/<b>//' -e 's/<\/b>//' -e 's/<BR \/>//' -e 's/<description>//' -e 's/<\/description>//'
remember to enter in your zip code.

and what URL are you using to get your weather image?
