No. You will be given a runway state. We can tell you what contaminants are present and an indication of the braking action i.e good, medium, poor, We will have done a test for our own peace of mind if possible and taken reports from pilots using the runway. The problem with slush and wet snow is that the figures gained from the friction testing equipment are not reliable.
Hope all this is helpfull...
