hmm, i think that this is rather a problem with the protocol.
when i open a telnet session to xoap.weather.com and request the same 
GET, the server will close the connection too.

try sending something like:
"GET /search/local/NOXX0029 HTTP/1.0
"

(which gives me a redirect to another site)

after the server closes the connection (and http-servers tend to close 
connections after each request), [netclient] is not connected any more - 
you have to reconnect.
