BUFR was created in 1988 with the goal of replacing the WMO's dozens of character-based, position-driven meteorological codes, such as SYNOP (surface observations), TEMP (upper air soundings) and CLIMAT (monthly climatological data). BUFR was designed to be portable, compact, and universal.
ASOS sensors, located at Salinas, California. Surface weather observations have traditionally been taken at airports due to safety concerns during takeoffs and landings. The ICAO defines the International Standard Atmosphere (also known as ICAO Standard Atmosphere), which is the model of the standard variation of pressure, temperature, density, and viscosity with elevation/altitude in the ...
[268] [269] With the weather station at Zürichberg reporting its highest ever value since the station was established in 1949. [ 270 ] Other high pressures in Switzerland are given as 3–4 March 1990 at Zurich Airport of >1047 hPa [ 271 ] and 29 January 1989 at Schaffhausen of 1047.2 hPa, which was the highest pressure in the country since ...
Data dissemination is usually via an automated VHF airband radio frequency (108-137 MHz) at each airport, broadcasting the automated weather observation. This is often via the automatic terminal information service (ATIS). Most automated weather stations also have discrete phone numbers to retrieve real-time observations over the phone or ...
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{UK Airport stations | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{UK Airport stations | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
A plane crash-landed in high winds at a Belfast airport as poor weather disrupted travel across the UK in the run-up to Christmas. Belfast City Airport was forced to enact emergency procedures on ...
