You need to check with Yahoo. Here's their weather condition list, http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/#codes (this is where I got my list).

Thanks.I know this list.

I use yahoo weather api to build an app for notification in iPhone.

I record the api data everyday and I found an interesting thing.

Some weather conditions' description are different with the api list.

Such as today's weather description is : Thunderstorms Late

But in http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/ you couldn't find "Thunderstorms Late".

Because I should translate the weather description to Chinese so I need all conditions' description.

Besides,current condition's description are also can't be found in the api list.

I doubt that is there another api list of Yahoo weather?

@lbj96347 As far as I can tell the codes have changed. I haven't found an updated list yet...

Can anyone please tell me how can i retrieve the image of the respective condition code?? Like if the code is 20, then i know it's foggy, but is there any way to get the image of "foggy" condition.

Yes- http://l.yimg.com/a/i/us/we/52/##.gif

Where ## is the number of the condition. For example if the current condition is drizzle (9). Then the correct image is http://l.yimg.com/a/i/us/we/52/9.gif

Yahoo weather condition codes are here: https://developer.yahoo.com/weather/documentation.html#codes

@rafay-hasan is it possible to get weather icon in large size?? because these images are very small in size..

@tofefinif Thank

FYI, current weather condition in Manchester is 'Scattered Showers' with a code of 39 which, when you look up on their table of weather conditions says 'Scattered Thunderstorms'

I've made a TypeScript Enum

export enum WeatherCodes {
    Tornado,
    TropicalStorm,
    Hurricane,
    SevereThunderstorms,
    Thunderstorms,
    MixedRainSnow,
    MixedRainSleet,
    MixedSnowSleet,
    FreezingDrizzle,
    Drizzle,
    FreezingRain,
    ShowersNight,
    ShowersDay,
    SnowFlurries,
    LightSnowShowers,
    BlowingSnow,
    Snow,
    Hail,
    Sleet,
    Dust,
    Foggy,
    Haze,
    Smoky,
    Blustery,
    Windy,
    Cold,
    Cloudy,
    MostlyCloudyNight,
    MostlyCloudyDay,
    PartlyCloudyNight,
    PartlyCloudyDay,
    ClearNight,
    Sunny,
    FairNight,
    FairDay,
    MixedRainAndHail,

    ScatteredSnowShowers,
    HeavySnowDay,
    PartlyCloudy,
    Thundershowers,
    SnowShowers,
    IsolatedThundershowers,
    NotAvailable = 3200,
}

I think Yahoo has changed their condition codes again.
And these changes are still undocumented AFAIK.
See the following screenshots.

Localization on such a mutable list seems to be painful. :-/

Weather Codes in JSON

What is link of Yahoo weather Condition Icons.....?
