The site is not best,there are lot better site with free API to get weather info in eg JSON.
The site has language detection.

i use PhatomJS(to no load a browser) as a driver for selenium.
This is the simple way to get away not looking at JavaScript source for reverse engineer as mention bye @stranac.

from selenium import webdriver

import time
browser = webdriver.PhantomJS()
url = 'http://freemeteo.no/vaer/oslo/daglig-vaermelding/idag/?gid=3143244&language=norwegian&country=norway'
browser.get(url)
time.sleep(3)
# Give source code to BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(browser.page_source, 'lxml')
temp = soup.select('#content > div.right-col > div.weather-now > div.today.clearfix > a.section.first > span.temp > strong')
print(temp)
print(temp[0].text)Output:[<strong>2<em>°C</em></strong>]
