Properties:

Properties Definition Type
BLOWING Raised by the wind to a moderate height above the ground (2 meters or more).

enum value

THUNDERSTORM Sudden electrical discharges manifested by a flash of light (lightning) and a sharp or rumbling sound (thunder). Thunderstorms are associated with convective clouds (Cumulonimbus) and are, more often, accompanied by precipitation in the form of rainshowers or hail, or occasionally snow, snow pellets, or ice pellets.

enum value

SHOWER Precipitation, often short-lived and heavy, falling from convective clouds. A shower is characterized by its sudden beginning and ending, and generally by large and rapid changes of intensity.

enum value

SHALLOW Has a very little vertical extent.

enum value

PROXIMITY The weather phenomenon is observed between approximately 8 km and 16 km from the aerodrome reference point.

enum value

PATCHES Occurrences over small areas.

enum value

PARTIAL Covering part of the aerodrome.

enum value

LOW_DRIFTING In motion due to the action of wind or raised by the wind to a small height above the ground (less than 2 meters).

enum value

FREEZING Precipitation freezing on impact on the ground and on exposed objects.
