KMKE 131252Z 01004KT 10SM OVC007 17/14 A3005 RMK AO2 SLP174 T01720144

I know what everything else means but for OVC007, does this means overcast at 700ft?

Thanks,

Brandon

What kind of info do you want about fog? Looking at that weather report, it isn't foggy just a low overcast.

Call the airport before you go :wink: Seriously.

METARS are not updated that frequently and if there are no rapidly changing weather conditions, it's only updated once an hour for most airports.
