The conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius is missing in both 3.21.36 and
3.22.0BR (alpha). Correction in next release, pending any other bug
(and not feature :>) )reports.
next release will also provide to weather macro tags:
<WX>
<WX:abcd> where abcd is the METAR ID string of the weather reporting
station.
also allow both English and Metric units in the report.
