According to [1], the National Weather Service has been observing the 
weather at Belvedere Castle in New York City's Central Park since 1920. 
The weather station at Central Park serves as the primary weather 
provider for the millions of people who live in work in Manhattan, the 
political, economic, and cultural center of New York City. While 
gweather's default Locations.xml file contains entries for JFK and 
LaGuardia airports in Queens, as well as stations across the river in 
New Jersey, it would be preferred if the Central Park observatory could 
be included. Fortunately, this change is trivial to implement; a patch 
(albiet with fewer languages than the rest of the Locations.xml file) is 
attached. Including this patch in Debian or upstream would prevent me 
from having to make the change every time I install a new system.

Thanks,
mike
