16 / 20

Which of the following statements is an interpretation of the METAR ?

00000KT 0200 R14/0800U R16/P1500U FZFG VV001 M03/M03 Q1022 BECMG 0800=

  • A
    Visibility 200 feet, RVR for runway 16 is more than 1500 metres, vertical visibility 100 feet, fog with hoar frost
  • B
    Visibility for runway 14 is 800 metres, fog with hoar frost, RVR for runway 16 more than 1500 metres
  • C
    RVR for runway 14 is 800 metres, vertical visibility 100 feet, calm, visibility improving to 800 metres in the next 2 hours
  • D
    Visibility 200 metres, RVR for runway 16 is 1500 metres, temperature -3°C, vertical visibility 100 metres.
00000KT 0200 R14/0800U R16/P1500U FZFG VV001 M03/M03 Q1022 BECMG 0800=
  • 00000 KT = wind calm
  • 0200 = visibility 200 m
  • R14/0800U = RVR, Runway 14, 800 m, tendency: increasing (U)
  • R16/P1500U = RVR, Runway 16, more than 1500 m, tendency: increasing (U)
  • FZFG = freezing fog
  • VV001 = vertical visibility 100 ft
  • M03/M03 = temperature -03ºC, dewpoint -03ºC
  • Q1022 = QHN 1022 (Q indicates the sea level pressure hectopascals)

A change of permanent character is expected to occur (BECMG) = visbility will improve to 800 m

“RVR for runway 14 800 metres, vertical visibility 100 feet, calm, visibility improving to 800 metres in the next 2 hours”
