Partial Ceiling Reports in Metars Caused "INVALID" Classification #13

Closed JohnMarzulli closed 6 years ago

JohnMarzulli commented 6 years ago

Reviewing logs found that this METAR caused an exception while being classified for ceiling, and thus was classified as "INVALID".

KVOK 251453Z 34004KT 10SM SCT008 OVC019 21/21 A2988 RMK AO2A SCT V BKN SLP119 53012

The source is that the remarks section had a SCT and BKN token without a value.

To avoid this:

  1. Skip over RMK since they do not represent the current condition in regards to our classification.
  2. Wrap the ceiling parsing into a try/except block and skip over in case of an error.
