Some METAR parts are not parsed #102

I came recently across an example METAR

METAR CYWG 172000Z 30015G25KT 3/4SM R36/4000FT/D -SN BLSN BKN008 OVC040 M05/M08 A2992 REFZRA WS RWY36 RMK SF5NS3 SLP134

which looks fine. But the following three items are not parsed:

RVR: R36/4000FT/D
Recent freezing rain: REFZRA
Wind sheer WS RWY36

Any idea why that might be?

I've looked a bit into it and it seems like 1 (the RVR) is because the library can't parse the trend:

/D = downward trend
/U = upward trend
/N = no change
