This is a simple R interface to forecast.io weather data. It uses RCurl and RJSONIO to fetch and extract the JSON weather/forecast data from http://forecast.io and returns the metadata and readings

Usage quick start:
fio.api.key = readLines("~/.forecast.io")

my.longitude = "-70.8618"
fio.list <- fio.forecast(fio.api.key, my.latitude, my.longitude)
