NOAA Weather Current Observations

This is a simple PHP function that utilizes the NOAA Weather hourly observations for the city of your choice and displays that information on your existing PHP website.

Here is a sample image:

To Setup

1. The NOAA XML file is downloaded using the get_weather.sh script. It should be set up to run as a cron job to get the file from NOAA at 15-17 minutes past each hour. You will need to configure the NOAA stationID along with the location you want the XML file to be saved on your server.
2. In the configurations file, noaa-current.conf.php, set $noaa_xml_file to the full path where the XML file is located.
3. In some cases the observed city provided in the feed is real long or may not be what you want displayed. In this case, uncomment the $obs_city variable in the conf file, provide the name you want, and then comment the $obs_city variable in the noaa-current.php file.

The HTML portion of the script can be used as is or can be completely rewritten to fit the design and flow of your website.
