Hi everyone my question regards the ending and beginning of precipitation as its listed in a metar. My confusion is the following. If a metar is issued at 1500Z and indicated RAB23 and it is now 1535Z does this mean that the precipitation began 23 minutes past the hour it was issued, which would make it 1523Z ?
Could you give an example with a precipitation ending as well, SNE15.
Thank you!
