What it says

Field	Value	What that means
Flight category	VFR	Visual flight rules — ceiling above 3,000 ft and visibility greater than 5 SM.
Wind	Calm	Direction is degrees true, as reported.
Visibility	10+ SM	10 SM is the maximum an automated US station reports; it means 10 or greater.
Ceiling	20,000 ft BKN	Lowest BKN layer, 20,000 ft above the field.
Sky	Scattered at 3,000 ft AGL, Broken at 20,000 ft AGL	—
Temperature	19°C (66°F)	—
Dewpoint	17°C (63°F)	—
Temp/dewpoint spread	2°C	A spread of 2°C or less favours fog or low stratus forming.
Altimeter	30.01 inHg	Set this in the Kollsman window; it is the field’s current sea level pressure setting.
