Would that be the "stop end surface wind condition"? That would make it the wind on the far end of the runway.

'Spot' wind? Wind indication at the time of transmitting.
Surface wind is usually an average of previous readings

I think Tu.114 has it, stop end.

Places such as FNC give touch down, mid point, and stop end wind reports because of local effects that can generate vastly different winds in relation to the conditions experienced at the threshold.
