Extracting METAR Data from Personal Weather Station

[Jake O. <ja...@or...>]

OK, I know I discussed this before, but the output wasn't as good as I
would've liked, mostly because the data sucked.=20

Anyway, we'll try this again. I can get access to a "metar.txt" file =
from a
local weather station that contains the following:

"METAR SNRV 072215Z AUTO 18308KT 13/01 A3016 RMK A02 SLP212 NOSPECI =
P0000
T01310015"

And I currently have a site setup at
http://www.sunrayinc.com/sunriver/weather/index.php that loads weather,
parses it through a "print_table()" function (basically, a hacked =
version of
the original that came in the pw_text.php file that didn't work when it =
was
released, but I managed to make it work how I wanted -- I'll send code =
if
anybody wants it). I'd like to be able to somehow get this data into
something useful (automatically, if possible) as my default metar data =
so I
can use this data instead of the one I'm currently using (KRDM, which is =
40
miles from here, but still the closest), as well as pass variables via =
the
URL (so I can use my
http://www.sunrayinc.com/sunriver/weather/windimage.php?icao=3Dsnrv =
files that
I created to get the images I want and lay it out like I want).

Any ideas? I'm not a wonderful PHP programmer by any means, and it was
probably a fluke I got the print_table to work for me to begin with :).
