Strange numbers at the end of a METAR

Have never come across this before... so it has me intrigued.

Looking at the METARs this morning I noticed that the Newcastle METAR has an odd set of numbers at the end (have underlined them below)... here it is:

EGNT 050750Z 26008KT 8000 -RA FEW020 BKN028 02/00 Q0979 25290095

Anyone know what it means? I can't recall seeing them in my Met study book or my exam. Have never seen this at all before so I am interested as to what they mean!

Regards
