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	160° at 4 kt	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	6,000 ft BKN	Lowest BKN layer, 6,000 ft above the field.
Sky	Scattered at 2,800 ft AGL, Broken at 6,000 ft AGL, Overcast at 12,000 ft AGL	—
Temperature	23°C (73°F)	—
Dewpoint	22°C (72°F)	—
Temp/dewpoint spread	1°C	A spread of 2°C or less favours fog or low stratus forming.
Altimeter	29.89 inHg	Set this in the Kollsman window; it is the field’s current sea level pressure setting.
