Python-metar is a python package for interpreting METAR and SPECI coded weather reports. METAR and SPECI are coded aviation weather reports. The official coding schemes are specified in the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Manual on Codes, vol I.1, Part A (WMO-306 I.i.A). US conventions for METAR/SPECI reports vary in a number of ways from the international standard, and are described in chapter 12 of the Federal Meteorological Handbook No.1. (FMH-1 1995), issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). General information about the use and history of the METAR standard can be found at. This module extracts the data recorded in the main-body groups of reports that follow the WMO spec or the US conventions, except for the runway state and trend groups, which are parsed but ignored. 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.
