How to Extract NOAA GHCND stations metadata

We can easily get nicely transformed NOAA Global Historical Climatology Network Daily (GHCN-D) station metadata. This is particularly useful for US/Canada related weather data.

We can do this by simply running the following code:

library(backburner)
ghcnd_stations <- backburner::get_transform_ghcnd_stations()

You can then use the ghcnd_stations tibble as required to get geospatial metadata on the GHCN-D climate features.
