How the METARMAP shows this airfield

From every METAR, the METARMAP and the METARMAP Mini work out the GAFOR category and light the airfield's LED in its colour. The worse of the two values always decides: visibility or cloud ceiling. See the maps →

No category: visibility or cloud was not measured. The LED stays dark.
