Hey guys, I have a question for you.

Look at this TAF for Zurich airport
TAF LSZH 211322 22018G35KT 9999 SCT012 BKN030 BECMG 1315 25025G45KT TEMPO 1720 4000 +SHRA BKN025TCU BECMG 2022 25015KT T1815Z T1618Z=

Which of these statements best describes the weather likely to be experienced at 1500 UTC?

B. Meteorological visibility 10 km or more, main cloud base 3000 ft, wind 250°, temperature 18°C

C. Meteorological visibility 10 km or more, main cloud base 1200 ft, gusts up to 45 knots.

The correct answer is supposedly B, whereas C was my selection.

There is the matter of the entries “T1815Z T1618Z” at the end of the TAF which I’m not entirely sure what they mean, but the book states that “TAFs do not contain information on temperature”, and I also ran through the CBT on the subject and couldn’t find anything about it there either, so am I missing something?
