FireWxPy 1.5

Thank you for using FireWxPy! Here is what is in our latest version:

New Editions for FireWxPy Version 1.5:

1. Forecast Cross-Sections between two points of (lat,lon)
2. METAR Observation plots
3. Scatter Plot Observation Graphics
4. Gridded Observation Graphics
5. SPC Convective Outlook Graphics
6. Graphical Improvements to existing products.
7. Back-end improvements for the NWS/SPC Graphics (switched from using ftplib + pygrib to urllib + xarray).

Removed pygrib as a dependency so now FireWxPy can be installed by both anaconda and pip.
Anaconda is still the recommended installation method.

To install the latest FireWxPy version via anaconda, type the following command into your anaconda prompt:

conda install firewxpy

To install using pip, type the following command into your terminal:

pip install firewxpy
