The script didn't work for me. "Zero" points added to Database"

I had to fetch the Data manually, because the gz-files just hat zero lenght :(

for Airports (i guess)
http://weather.noaa.gov/data/nsd_bbsss.txt

for country:
http://weather.noaa.gov/data/nsd_cccc.txt

gzip them and add a -f option to your statemnet pointing to the  
gz-file using the apropriate -a or -l setting.

(see  buildMetarDB.php -h )

This way i got it working.

Best wishes
Tom
