Seems to be a simple XML structure as you said.  Here is an example.

# To run the following code, you need to get the latest
# soap4r module from SVN repository.

Regards,

## preparing

t  ime.now
starter  ime.local(t.year,t.mon, t.day) + (24 *3600)
ender  tarter + 7 * 24 *3600
lattitude  9.0
longitude  77.0

## accessing through dynamically generated driver

require 'soap/wsdlDriver'

params  :maxt false, :mint false, :temp true, :dew true,
  :pop12 false, :qpf false, :sky false, :snow false,
  :wspd false, :wdir false, :wx false, :waveh false,
  :icons false}

wsdl  http://weather.gov/forecasts/xml/DWMLgen/wsdl/ndfdXML.wsdl"
drv  OAP::WSDLDriverFactory.new(wsdl).create_rpc_driver
drv.wiredump_dev  TDOUT if $DEBUG
dwml  rv.NDFDgen(lattitude, longitude, 'time-series', starter, ender,
params)
puts dwml

soap  OAP::Processor.unmarshal(dwml)
data  OAP::Mapping.soap2obj(soap["data"])

data.parameters.temperature.each do |temp|
  p temp.name
  p temp.value
end

p data["time-layout"]["start-valid-time"]
