Subject: Put 'USA' in the abstract
How about changing the abstract from: A simple way to get current weather data from the NWS To the following: get current weather data for the USA from the NWS To make it clear that this isn't a general service for getting weather data, but just for the USA.
This software isn't USA specific. For example, these three reports: MMCB, Cuernavaca, Mexico 2012/11/28 00:47 MMCB 280047Z 35006KT 10SM FEW100 SCT200 22/03 A3015 RMK 8/051 Temperature is 72 degrees Air Pressure is 30.15 inches Conditions Fair VIJP, Jaipur, India 2012/11/28 01:30 VIJP 280130Z 00000KT 2000 FU SCT100 13/05 Q1016 NOSIG Temperature is 55 degrees Air Pressure is 30.00 inches Conditions Smoke EBBR, Brussels, Belgium 2012/11/28 01:20 EBBR 280120Z 23002KT 9999 SCT034 05/04 Q1006 NOSIG Temperature is 41 degrees Air Pressure is 29.71 inches Conditions Partly Cloudy
Ah, sorry about the bogus report then. I looked at the NWS website, and it seemed to suggest that it was for the USA only. Should've looked more closely ;-)
No problem, thanks for the suggestion. Perhaps the examples should include a non-USA example.
