# TODO handle xsi:nil="true" handling
# TODO can soap data be received as stream, so we don't have to store giant string?
# TODO cache SOAP response with all data, and only update that occasionally, to
#      prevent hammering the NWS servers, also, to speed up the scripts.
# TODO is visibility handling right? Have never seen it not nil, so I don't know
# what its going to look like. Update: I think nil means unlimited from looking
# at table 7 in http://www.weather.gov/mdl/XML/Design/MDL_XML_Design.htm, still
# waiting to get something other than nil though.
