Default Quite a nice day, but.....

This is the latest from one of my favourite exotic weather places,
Río Gallegos, Argentina, 52 S, 69 W.

SAWG 161300Z 25045G57KT 9999 FEW030 16/01 Q0989

meaning: (9 a.m. local time) Wind WSW force 9, gusting to force 11.
Vis 10 km. 2 oktas at 3000 ft (probably shallow Cu). Temp 16,
dewpoint 1. Pressure 989. It's midsummer down there, oddly, the
windiest time of year.
