Interesting!

What does RED mean guys? A couple of other METARS had WHT or GRN at
the end, that too?

Thanks guys, I needed to know FAST!

I've got it now.

Neighbours and family were MOST impressed when I phoned them an hour
before the snow TS arrived, with precise details of what would happen
and when
