PHP Weather Timeouts

[Danny L. <da...@sq...>]

This is a multipart question....

How does PHP Weather address timeouts?  For example, what is the
expected behavior if the NWS site is down?
  
I don't know much about fsokopen() and file() functions.  I do know that
PHP handles files and sockets the same.  In addition, it would seem that
best practices suggest using socket_set_timeout() which sets the timeout
after the connection is made.

If PHP Weather has logic to gracefully fail in the event of an NWS
outage, can someone please point me at it?

Thanks,
