Any way to add WIND.GUS to the data pull?

[selu220]

Hello!

This package is phenomenal - really appreciate the effort. I forked the package and attempted to edit it myself to include wind gust data, but have not been successful (managed to get down to the utils.R script which is where I think it needs to be included).

Any advice on how it can be included? Or perhaps there is a good reason you decided to exclude it from the dataset?

@selu220 Thanks! Apologies for the delay, have been a bit busy lately.

The data comes in as fixed width and I've named all the columns accordingly. It sounds like you've found the code already, but you can see the column widths and names in the utils.R script between lines 55 - 65. I don't believe WIND.GUS is included in the datasets. If however I have missed it, I would be happy to include it if you have found some documentation on it. If you've already found it and included it in your version a pull request would be more than welcome!

As an aside, many of the stations I have found don't include Wind data in general. Even when it is collected by the station, it's much sparser than the Temp data. Unless maybe you know the station(s) of interest, and know it collects that data.
