Description: 
        Metar is a python package for interpreting METAR and SPECI weather reports.
        
        METAR is the international standard format for reporting weather observations.
        The standard specification for the METAR and SPECI codes is given
        in the WMO Manual on Codes, vol I.1, Part A (WMO-306 I.i.A).  US
        conventions for METAR/SPECI reports are described in chapter 12 of
        the Federal Meteorological Handbook No.1. (FMH-1 1995), issued by
        NOAA.  See <http://metar.noaa.gov/>
        
        This module handles all main-body groups in reports that follow the
        WMO spec or the US conventions, except for trend groups.  The most
        useful remark groups defined in the US spec are parsed, as well,
        such as the cumulative precipitation, min/max temperature, peak
        wind and sea-level pressure groups.  No other regional conventions
        are formally supported, but a large number of variant formats found
        in international reports are accepted.
Platform: Python 2.3 and later.
