W / Wind Direction - issued in degrees translated by VWS
9 / Wind Speed (suffix KT in data = Knots)
9 / Wind Gust (IF given G in wind data, but this is VWS guess)
--- / Visibility (can be given as a figure SM = miles, or in a coded desc.)
--- / Cloud Height (VWS 1000s ft usually in 100s ft - 5 = 500 - VWS shows LOWEST value !
None reported None reported / Sky condition (VWS ignores multiple conditions, shows LAST only - see above)
None reported/ Weather description (VWS seems to ignore most, favouring cloud)
--- / Rain/hr (haven't seen this in data yet !)
