dir_as_integer

Convert Wind Direction from a Character to an Integer

Enables interaction with the National Weather Service application programming web-interface for fetching of real-time and forecast meteorological data. Users can provide latitude and longitude, Automated Surface Observing System identifier, or Automated Weather Observing System identifier to fetch recent weather observations and recent forecasts for the given location or station. Additionally, auxiliary functions exist to identify stations nearest to a point, convert wind direction from character to degrees, and fetch active warnings. Results are returned as simple feature objects whenever possible.
