thanks for reporting.
This report has several issues. The format for the wind is incorrect, "RMK" is missing before the remarks (these 2 are handled by the parser), and the shower in the vicinity is not reported in the main part of the METAR, and it is not reported with the standard abbreviation VCSH. I'd say this last issue is one step too far away from the WMO standard, and very likely unique, so I won't implement another regex for this single occurrence. There are simply too many possibilities for plain text, and for this one there even is a valid abbreviation.
Kind regards
Thomas

it is clear. I would like to know if could possible to add at metar2xml a parser for SIGMET and AIRMET warnings? They are very useful
