Harald,
Google Maps offers such a lookup. Do not know current conditions, pricing.
An alternative is http://askgeo.com/ they are offering it free for non
profit.
http://www.worldweatheronline.com/time-zone-api.aspx offers a free API
according to their WEB.
And there are others.
Maybe one is interested to add it to the code.
Regards... Bela
