In the UK the prescence or otherwise of surface water on a runway is to be reported on the RTF and ATIS.In the UK WET is defined as "The surface is soaked but no significant patches of standing water are visible"(Standing water is considered to exist when water on the runway surface is deeper than 3mm. Patches of standing water covering more than 25% of the assessed area will be reported as WATER PATCHES)Hope that helps
