Issue Summary

Bangalore (India) has two ICAO codes - VOBG and VOBL. Weather for the former has not been updated since February 2009. The latter gets updated regularly. I verified this by checking in http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/metar.shtml. (I suspect VOBG is now deprecated).

The weather module only supports VOBG, but not VOBL. Can support for VOBL be added?

Title:Support for ICAO code VOBL» Add Bangalore (VOBL)

I found out that VOBG is not deprecated, only updated very infrequently - once a month or so - which makes it useless. VOBL however is up-to-date.

Hi,

thanks for your report and sorry for the long delay. This is now fixed in CVS and will be part of the next release.
