+
+Fetch and parse aviation weather reports.
+
+Currently, only standard METAR reports are supported, subject to extensive
+testing. RMK sections are not yet supported. Making this parser work with all METARs is pretty tedious and difficult,
+because every country seems to be using some subtly different specification.
+This parser was written with the publicly available documentation from
+DWD (Deutscher Wetterdienst) in mind, so it should work with all German
+METARs. Patches (pull requests) and suggestions are very welcome!
+
+Important: "For educational purposes only, *not* for flight planning! Use at
+your own risk."
+
+# Usage
+
+This package is intended to be used as a library. However, for demonstration purposes,
+it comes with a small command line utility that can be invoked like this:
+
+    hc@hc-pc ~ λ metar eddf llbg eham tncm
+
+The output will look like this:
+
+    Fetching weather information for eddf
+    Parsing "METAR EDDF 281650Z 15006KT 9999 FEW034 SCT048 BKN130 22/15 Q1015 NOSIG="
