AWOS given Altimeter pressure lower than airport elevation
Hi,
While setting my altimeter setting according to what was given by my local airport AWOS, I realized that the altimeter reading displayed is lower than the official ground elevation of the airport I am flying from.
Is that normal? What do I need to take note of when flying to ensure I don't go too low to the ground than I would like to.
Thank you.
