Temperatures are reported in Celsius. Note: METAR information is only displayed within the installed navigation database service area. METARs (METeorological Aerodrome Reports) describe observed weather conditions at airports and reporting stations. METARs are generally updated hourly, but may be updated more frequently if conditions warrant. METARs typically contain information about the temperature, dewpoint, wind, precipitation, cloud cover, cloud heights, visibility, and barometric pressure. They can also contain information on precipitation amounts, lightning, and other critical data. METARs are shown as colored flags at airports that provide them.
