Creating TAFs...
Best place I can find here for this. Calling all Met trained folks.
How can you tell and what tools do you use to differentiate between the following? What is it that allows you to be this sure, whether it happens or not?
SCT025 - SCT035 - what is it that causes the 1000' difference?
SCT030 - BKN030 - what is it that makes sct 'sct' and not 'bkn'?
RA +RA - presumably much easier here?
SHRA - RA - patchy/less water suspended equals only showers?
BCFG - 150mFG
FG - BR etc etc…
GS - GR - what conditions form the difference between the two? GR is constantly forming in layers below the freezing point so is much harder and more dangerous, whereas GS are just quick-forming non-laminar pellets?
Isobars to wind strength and direction understood but where cloud/precipitation are concerned - specifically to do with the amount of moisture present and the T/DP relationship or is it more than that?
TVM!
