I need to get the output of the above command for a web site I'm
working on.  I've tried exec(), system() and neither seems to
work.

You know, it might be easier if you use the new NOAA XML weather feeds [ http://www.nws.noaa.gov/alerts/ ].


Also, did you know that you can FTP into their public server and download observation reports? They are cycled every hour, and are available via anonymous FTP from weather.noaa.gov/data/observations/metar/cycles directory.

Or, you can use snoopy and submit your ICAO code to http://www.noaa.gov/weather/metar.shtml and have snoopy return the plain text version of the file. You should get your METAR report there.

(yes, I am an avid flight simulator)

Sorry I didn't answer your original question.
