Where do weather channel get there temperature readings from?

How do weather channel get all there readings for all most every single zip code in almost every city in america and even other parts of the world? I know some readings might come from airports but not every county or zip code in america has an airport. i lived in savannah,ga for 15 years and there is like 5 or 6 different zips and theres only 1 army airfield which weather channel might get there readings from.... but all the zip codes have a different temperature.

In the US from local airports, federal buildings of the sort that have had established stations for years that are now hooked in.
