RWY wet BA good

Hi small_dog,

that seems to be a SNOWTAM in METAR style.

A repeated previous report (99) (the following slash (/) is often used as visual divider from the rest of the report) saying that water or water patches (2) are covering 51% to 100% (9) of the runway with no measurable or significant depth (//) and breaking action good (95)

In other words, the runway seems to be wet and BA is good.
