A rudimentary parser for the Shipping Forecast, as issued by the Met Office on behalf of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency at 0600 today.

var utsire = require('utsire')
utsire.get(function(forecast) {
  console.log(forecast.gales)
})

utsire.get(callback) is the only function. It returns an object with the following properties:

• synopsis: an object containing a time and a content string, the former containing the time of the synopsis, and the latter containing the general synopsis itself.
• areas: an object containing objects containing Area Forecasts, keyed to each area (e.g. "Viking", which in turn contains precipitation, wind, seastate and visibility strings, as well as a shared object containing the list of areas that have identical forecasts.
• header: always "Shipping forecast".
• gales: an array of area names that currently have gale warnings in force.
