meteo_spherical_distance

This function uses the haversine formula to calculate the great circle
distance between two locations, identified by their latitudes and longitudes.

Client for many 'NOAA' data sources including the 'NCDC' climate
'API' at <https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/webservices/v2>, with functions for
each of the 'API' 'endpoints': data, data categories, data sets, data types,
locations, location categories, and stations. In addition, we have an interface
for 'NOAA' sea ice data, the 'NOAA' severe weather inventory, 'NOAA' Historical
Observing 'Metadata' Repository ('HOMR') data, 'NOAA' storm data via 'IBTrACS',
tornado data via the 'NOAA' storm prediction center, and more.
