Aviation routine weather reports - METAR (NOAA AWC)
Worldwide current aerodrome observations (METAR/SPECI) from the NOAA/NWS Aviation Weather Center, decoded to structured fields plus the raw report. Filter by ICAO station ids, bounding box and flight category (VFR/MVFR/IFR/LIFR). Consultative only; not a substitute for an official preflight briefing.
