Function fetchPirep

Fetches PIREPs from the Aviation Weather Center text API and parses each record. AWC returns one PIREP per line for the pirep endpoint.

The PIREP endpoint is station-centric: results are filtered to reports near the given center-point airport. The AWC API accepts a single id only (no comma-separated list), so this function takes a single station identifier. The identifier must be a 4-letter ICAO code (e.g. KDEN, not DEN); AWC returns a 400 Invalid location specified for shorter forms.

import { fetchPirep } from '@squawk/weather/fetch';

const { pireps } = await fetchPirep('KDEN', { distance: 100, age: 6 });
console.log(pireps[0]?.aircraftType);
