Learn more about requeston npm.

First do

npm install request

then, in your routes files, say index.js

router.get('/weather', function(req, res, next){
    request('http://www.yahoo.com/your/api/url', function (error, response, body) {
        if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
            console.log(body);
            res.send(body); // this will send data to client.
        }
    })
});
