Add-ons Bindings

I have been using the weather binding for a while and I like the binding.
Unfortunately the data this binding is receiving from the service providers I have tested (Yahoo, OpenWeatherMap) is very bad with respect of forecast quality and sometimes utterly wrong.

I was wondering if someone has figured out how to use the “Deutscher Wetter Dienst”.
I would guess with regex, it would be possible to gather sensible information.
Some hints are provided at.

If someone has a working solution it would be great to provide some hints.
