Jerry,
You could take the metar2nc ( METAR converter to NetCDF ) decoder and
write out your PostGres format. YOu would have to hack the NetCDF calls
out of the decoder.
The decoders page is locate at:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/decoders
Should give you all the info you need. You need to download the complete
package to get metar2nc.
