#it was literally downloading from the ftp server at like 180 KB/sec for ages. Absolute torture.#i wonder if the newer years get served faster???#anyway#the noaa should just use torrents. why don't they just serve this shit using torrents.#i nearly wrote a code to just grab the files I needed using terminal bc it was so slow#but I was busy with other shit and it actually isn't easy to figure out lmao#like they don't tell you shit about those files like the wban list is in a completely other place. why. why why why.#I have the wban list now and merged it with the rest of the file name info but what is the point literally. have a key in the folder damn.
