fid=fopen('data1.txt');
A=textscan(fid,'%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s%s','delimiter',',');
fclose(fid);

If this data is in .csv format then you can 'csvread' function in matlab.

First capture data from website using 'urlread', you will get data in string.
Then use 'strread' function to parse the weather data.
