RMK: The air has a definite sniff of the North Sea
about it -- quite cool in the shade when the breeze
decides to blow. And the haze really is thick. It reminds
me of Aberdeen on an anticyclonic June afternoon with
the sea-breeze kicking in, except I can't smell the fish
market.

didn't think you could have +HZ?

LOL You can't in METARs. But these aren't METARs.
They just use the METAR format in a very loose way.
It's just additional information, Joe.
