0730z NE F3 25km 5Ac150 7Ci250 01.5/00.2 1009.2
RMK Very disappointing ... it only rained gently for a few hours on Saturday evening here. Starting today I'm switching to the coded method of reporting cloud heights ... eg 150 = 15000ft, 250 = 25000ft. It takes up less room. Philip Eden Luton (Round Green) 155m |

Just as a minor point of interest, why is the visibility reported in metric units but the cloud height in imperial?

Just as a minor point of interest, why is the visibility reported in metric units but the cloud height in imperial? It's bizarre, isn't it? It's how the various meteorological codes were set up in the 1950s, and it hasn't changed. I vaguely remember the units were chosen on advice from the aviation sector ... I'm sure someone here will "remember". Philip Eden |
