Snowtam decoder running on smartphone so is always on your hands, just insert the 8 digits snowtam and read the plain text."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Jerry-snuno.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/><br /><br />Let it never be said we don't bring you everything you might ever need Smartphone wise. For those of you who need to decode the Snowtam codes in your METAR well here you go. If you aren't a pilot you may have no idea what I am talking about. I believe these codes are only used in Europe. I have never seen them on US METAR reports. Of course I spend most of my time flying on the west coast. :D
