I have a few met questions I'd love if someone could help me with .I should probably know this stuff but I don't , here goes;
At airports that have an AWIS, why is it quite regularly not the same as the metar (ie the metar is an automatic one)? Sure the differences are usually not huge - but if the source is the same, why aren't they?
What instruments are used to figure out visibility and cloud bases?
Thanks
