    I want to fetch 26 out of this using express. I used following code but failed.

    $data = '<span style="text-transform: capitalize;">cloudy</span> 26<abbr title="Temperature in degrees Celsius">°C</abbr>';	
$pattern = '/</span> (.*)<abbr title/msU';
preg_match_all($pattern, $data, $matche1);

    You have to escape the slash inside the </span>.

$data = '<span style="text-transform: capitalize;">cloudy</span> 26<abbr title="Temperature in degrees Celsius">°C</abbr>';    
$pattern = '#[\d]+#';
preg_match_all ( $pattern, $data, $matche1);
