# Brief Description
# ================= lcdMetar - Fetches METAR Weather information and send it to LCDproc.
#
# lcdmetar.pl is a program to fetch METAR Weather information (e.g. =head1 SYNOPSIS
# temperature) from a nearby (or not) airport using Geo::METAR and the
# LWP modules. B<lcdmetar.pl> [I<METAR-Code>]
#
# Given an airport site code on the command line, lcdmetar.pl =head1 DESCRIPTION
# fetches the current temperature, wind and clound information,
# and displays it via lcdproc (http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net) B<lcdMetar> is a program to fetch METAR Weather information (e.g.
# For fun, here are some example airports: temperature) from a nearby (or not) airport using Geo::METAR and the
# LWP modules.
# LA : KLAX
# Dallas : KDFW Given an airport site code on the command line, lcdMetar
# Detroit: KDTW fetches the current weather observations,
# Chicago: KMDW and displays them via LCDproc (http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net/)
# Graz/Austria (Thalerhof) : LOWG
# =head1 OPTIONS
# More can be found at http://weather.noaa.gov
# =item B<METAR-Code>
# no warranty - use at your own risc.
# DO NOT PLAN FLIGHTS ETC ON THIS INFORMATION!!!! The METAR code related of the city you want weather observations.

For fun, here are some example METAR codes:
LA : KLAX
Dallas : KDFW
Detroit: KDTW
Chicago: KMDW
Graz/Austria (Thalerhof) : LOWG
Quebec City: CYQB

=head1 DIAGNOSTICS
=item Cannot connect to LCDproc port
By default, lcdMetar tries to connect to localhost port 13666. If you get this
error, that means that this is not possible to connect to this port. You can change
the port lcdMetar connects to by modifying the script's variables $host and $port.
=item METAR is too short! Something went wrong.
The METAR data we received is not what we expected, check out NOOA's web site
(http://weather.noaa.gov/) to see if something has changed.
=item Can't connect to METAR source
lcdMetar tried to fetch weather observations from NOAA's web site and failed. It
will retry in 15 minutes.
