My one-line solution.  
Just join the below 4 lines become one single line; even no need space  
when join lines.

require’open-uri’;puts (ARGV.size !=1)?“Usage: #$0 ”:  
("The temperature in #$1 is #$2 degrees F."if  
%r|Weather for **(._?)_**_._?(\d+)°F|=~  
open(“[temperature - Google Search](http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=temperature+#%7BARGV%5B0%5D%7D)”){|f|f.read})

Semi-colons, that is so cheating. 🙂

require(“open-uri”) && puts((ARGV.size !=1) ? “Usage: #$0 ”:  
(“The  
temperature in #$1 is #$2 degrees F.” if %r|Weather for  
**(._?)_**_._?  
(\d+)°F|  
=~open(“[temperature - Google Search](http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=temperature+#%7BARGV%5B0%5D%7D)”){|f|  
f.read}))

This is without semi-colons 🙂
