Temperatures in the summary view can also be shown in °F. Decoding of binary BUFR messages now requires Geo::BUFR 1.37+ and ECC BUFR table files from ECWMF. Parsing of METAR and translations were improved. Various other small improvements were made, and a few bugs were fixed.

Processing of the WMO code table 0700 was improved. @rn/@rp is used for the temperature. Five more AMDAR (BUFR) groups are processed. noaa.gov, SourceForge and CoD URLs were switched to HTTPS. The dependency of the parser on POSIX (floor) was removed. Various other improvements were made and a few bugs were fixed.

The period g0 for the SYNOP group 54g0sndT (section 3) defaults to the W1W2 period; timeBeforeObs is used instead of hoursFrom, hoursTill (not backwards compatible). Various additional METAR, SYNOP and BUFR groups are recognised, changes for FMH-1 (2017) were incorporated, and a few bugs were fixed.

BUFR messages with multiple observations are split into one report per observation. Multiple observations of past weather (with different time periods) are allowed (not backwards compatible). A few minor bugs were fixed and several smaller improvements were made.

Starting with the next version, metaf2xml will split BUFR messages with multiple observations (i.e. taken at different times) and generate one report per observation. Therefore the callback function configured via start_cb() will possibly be called

Processing of decoded BUFR messages was extended. BUFR decoding of section 4 (data) can be skipped depending on fields in BUFR sections 1..3 with Geo::BUFR 1.33+. Multiple observations in an AMDAR message are allowed. The pseudo-BUFR (text) format
