A Data Mining Project (day 6)

So the Personal Weather Stations account is now active
(http://www.pwsweather.com/obs/ILEINSTE8.html)
As is the Weather Underground account
(http://www.wunderground.com/weatherstation/WXDailyHistory.asp?ID=ILEINSTE8)
As is the basic site that Cumulus generates

A note on converting the decimal latitude/longitude to degree/minutes/seconds...
"+" latitude indicates the Norther Hemisphere.
"-" latitude indicates the Southern Hemisphere.
"+" longitude indicates West of Greenwich.
"-" longitude indicates East of Greenwich.
To convert lat +53.295879
0.295879 * 60 = 17.75274
0.75274 * 60 = 45.1644
Therefore in degree/minutes/seconds we express lat +53. 295879
as +53 degrees, 17 minutes, 45 seconds.

Similarly to convert long -6.184674
0.184674 * 60 = 11.08044
0.08044 * 60 = 4.8264
Therefore in degree/minutes/seconds we express long -6.184674
as -6 degrees, 11 minutes, 5 seconds (round up).

And all of that brings you here...
