About RSS
RSS is an XML based document format for syndicating news and other
timely news-like information. It provides headlines, URLs to the
source document and brief description information in an easy to understand
and use format. RSS based "News Readers" and "News Aggregators" allow
the display of RSS headlines on workstation desktops. Software libraries
exist to read the RSS format and present RSS headlines on webpages
and other online applications.
These NWS supplied RSS documents use the RSS 2.0 format. Each
RSS item links to the html/web documents described above. Additional
technical information is available from the following non-US Government

About XML
NWS offers hourly weather observations formated with xml tags to aid in the parsing of the
information by automated programs used to populate databases, display information on webpages or other
similar applications. This format is not to be confused with RSS and cannot
be read by RSS readers and aggregators. These files present more detailed information then
the RSS feeds in strings friendly for parsing. Both the RSS and XML feeds offer
URLs to icon images. Additionally, A list of what phrases
may appear in the XML tag
and suggested icons is available. To access these feeds, select a state and then the last XML link in
the column.
