Hi Sreenatha! Glad to hear you're interested in Tor Weather!
Just a quick reminder about GSoC: the student application deadline is
really soon, in like four days or so from now. Be sure to get your
application in by the deadline!

Looks like some fine code. I didn't spot any issues with it. (I'm not
a Python person.)

Thanks for working on Weather!
