METARS
Atmospheric pressure as reported for METARs is given in hectopascals (hPa), except for in the United
note:
States, where it is reported in inches of mercury (in Hg). Temperatures are reported in Celsius.
METAR information is only displayed within the installed navigation database service area.
note:
METARs (METeorological Aerodrome Reports) describe observed weather conditions at airports and
reporting stations. METARs are generally updated hourly, but may be updated more frequently if conditions
warrant. METARs typically contain information about the temperature, dewpoint, wind, precipitation, cloud
cover, cloud heights, visibility, and barometric pressure. They can also contain information on precipitation
amounts, lightning, and other critical data. METARs are shown as colored flags at airports that provide them.
