Update internal database with latest BOM forecast towns
Source:R/update_forecast_towns.R
update_forecast_towns.Rd
Download the latest select forecast towns from the BOM server and
update internal database of précis forecast town names and AAC
codes used by get_precis_forecast
. There is no need to use
this unless you know that a forecast town exists in a more current version of
the BOM précis forecast town name database that is not available in
the database distributed with bomrang. In fact, for
reproducibility purposes, users are discouraged from using this function.
