GREAT WORK getting it up!  I was confused at first until I reread the thread about where it grabbed your location...then it was all good.  Very awesome!  Thanks, Martin!

Too bad I can't have the option of actually setting it to an airport's observations (which are what can actually be called observations). For now, I have my location set to "n/a".

What are you talking about? As far as I can tell, the observations ARE coming from an airport.

They are. Go to http://www.twctodayforums.com/weather/hw3.php and enter your location. It says the airport code for your area

Aaron, these aren't HiRAD observations.  It gives you the nearest airport observation based on your location every hour.  Look up that site Martin gave above.  I already tested it out for a bunch of locations, and it works well. :yes:

Nice job on this mod so far, Martin! :thumbsup:

The way the 2007+ icons are shaped make the icons very tiny. I am considering using XL icons if nobody objects.

Not according to this post...

I like the idea, although do you think you could use weather.com's reports? There are some areas where airports are very sparse, including where I live.
Going to use weather.com's API :yes:

Martin didn't use weather.com's API.  He's using the PHP feature from HAMWeather, which is a site that displays everything from the NWS.  As a result, all the obs are from airports.

Do you think you can switch to weather.com instead? Airports are pretty sparse, especially in the midwest. There aren't any here in Marlton.

There's no way to do that with HAMWeather.
