Issue with VBR wind direction and wind_dir.compass #163
Description
I am working on a Program to display the Current weather on a Raspberry Pi. I'd like to display the wind direction and the closest I found is the variable wind_dir.compass. However when the wind direction is listed as VBR. I get the following error:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'compass'
Here is a Sample script I use to reproduce this error. If you change the input code between the 2 listed in the script you can make the error happen or not.
from __future__ import print_function
from metar import Metar
# A sample METAR report
code = (
# "K12N 121754Z AUTO 36007G16KT 330V040 M01/M04 A2931 RMK AO1 SLP934 P0001 60042 T10111044 10056 21017 56042"
"K12N 082154Z AUTO VRB03KT 07/M09 A3013 RMK AO1 SLP208 T00721089"
)
print("-----------------------------------------------------------------------")
print("METAR: ", code)
print("-----------------------------------------------------------------------")
# Initialize a Metar object with the coded report
obs = Metar.Metar(code)
# Print the individual data
# The 'station_id' attribute is a string.
print("station: %s" % obs.station_id)
print("Compass: " + obs.wind_dir.compass())
print("-----------------------------------------------------------------------\n")
