baroclinic_instability Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Boom. Edit: Though report doesn't really match radar at all, weird. Yeah I am still trying to figure out if it is legit or not. FAA weather observers at large airports (or any airports for that matter) are not necessarily trained spotters. I was an FAA observer at KGFK in ND for a year and we had no training at all on spotting tors, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't say what that individual was doing since I was not there. There very well may have been one, or he/she also could have been responding to the reports by pilots...and simply put it in the METAR to be safe. Tough to say without being there.
