sed: print out to first blank line
I am trying to use wget and sed to extract a text based weather forecast for the Greater Victoria area only, this is one paragraph of many in a web page. I have tried /^$/ but that does not seem to work. So far I get mostly what I want with this:

wget -qO - http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/forecast/textforecast_e
.html?Bulletin=fpcn11.cwvr | sed -n "/Greater Victoria/,/Fraser/p
"

but that stops one line ahead of what I want by using /Fraser/ . How can I change the sed portion of above to stop at what appears to be a blank line in the text?

Weather::Com::Forecast(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			       Weather::Com::Forecast(3pm)

NAME

       Weather::Com::Forecast - class representing all available weather forecasts for one location

SYNOPSIS

	 [...]

	 my @locations = $weather_finder->find('Heidelberg');

	 my $forecast = $locations[0]->forecast();
	 my $tomorrow = $forecast->day(1);

	 print "Forecast for tomorrow:
";
	 print " - tomorrow it's the ", $tomorrow->date()->date(), "
";
	 print " - sunrise will be at ", $tomorrow->sunrise()->time(), "
";
	 print " - maximum temperature will be ", $tomorrow->high(), "
";

DESCRIPTION

       Using Weather::Com::Forecast objects is the way to access weather forecast information for one specific location (city) and 0 (today) to 9
       days in the future.

       Each time you call the Weather::Com::Location objects' "forecast()" method, you'll get an updated Weather::Com::Forecast object. This
       object is used to access the 10 Weather::Com::DayForecast objects containing the actual data.

CONSTRUCTOR

       new(hash or hashref)

       You usually would not construct an object of this class yourself.  This is implicitely done when you call the "forecast()" method of a
       Weather::Com::Location object.

METHODS

       all()

       Returns an arrayref of all Weather::Com::DayForecast objects if called in scalar context, an array if called in list context.

       day(day number)

       Returns the Weather::Com::DayForecast object that corresponds to the day number you provided.

       The day number can be any number between 0 and 9.

       Day 0 is usually today. Due to a bug (I think it is one) in the weather.com XOAP API, you may get the full forecast data of yesterday if
       you call for day 0 just after midnight. I think this may have do something with the timezone.  I have not fully investigated this issue,
       yet. Please contact me, if you have!
