Description: # pynws
        
        A python library to asynchronously retrieve weather observation from NWS/NOAA.

        ## Example
        See [example.py](example.py) for a runnable example.
        ```python
        PHILLY = (39.95, -75.16)
        USERID = "testing@address.xyz"
        
        async def example():
            async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
                nws = pynws.SimpleNWS(*PHILLY, USERID, session)
                await nws.set_station()
                await nws.update_observation()
                await nws.update_forecast()
                await nws.update_alerts_forecast_zone()
                print(nws.observation)
                print(nws.forecast[0])
                print(nws.alerts_forecast_zone)
        ```
        
        ## Functionality
        pynws exposes the ability to retrieve raw data using `raw_data` module. `Nws` class offers ability to retrieve minimally processed data for a single location.  `SimpleNWS` class offers data caching and several other helpers for interpreting output.
        
        
        ### Units for Observations in SimpleNWS
        NWS API does not expose all possible units for observations.  Known units are converted to the following:
        
        |unit type   | known NWS units| pynws unit |
        |------------|----------------|------------|
        |temperature | degF, degC     | Celsius    |
        |pressure    | Pa             | Pascal     |
        |speed       | m_s-1, km_h-1  | km_h-1     |
        |percent     | percent        | percent    |
        |angle       | degree_(angle) | degrees    |
        |distance    | m              | meter      |
