You can now get feeds for new stations coming online in your area. There 
are two feeds displayed on every /site/xxxxx page for stations within 
100 (or 250) miles.

The smarter will be able to figure out how to make a feed for any 
particular distance.

http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/cgi-bin/newsite.pl?

parameters:

	within=100       distance
	site=c0003	 origin point
	lat=48.1234
	lon=-73.4566

Use either site= or lat=&lon= to specify the point at the center of the 
circle.

I';ve tried to set it to only update once per day -- that is when I get 
the data, so nothing will change faster than that.

Enjoy.
