Hi Brian and everyone. I was wondering if it would be possible to add more identification to a couple of my local area metars. There are 3 metars for the New York City area. The New York City, Central Park metar, is located about 18 miles to my west. I use the metar out of John F. Kennedy airport which is located about 5 miles to my west here on Long Island, New York, but it’s labeled as New York which can be confused for New York City. Also LaGaurdia airport which is about 13 miles to my NW, is also labeled as New York which can be confused as well. The Central Park metar in New York City is labeled as New York City which is good. I was wondering if could be possible to add JFK to the metar from John F. Kennedy airport and LGA to the metar out of LaGaurdia airport. I cropped the local metars below to show what they could look like after the change. All other local metars around my area on Long Island are named after the town names and are not confusing. It would be great and appreciated if this or something similar could be done.

Thanks,

Hey Brian. Sorry bout that. I just sent the message to you direct. I figured you could just
add additional text to the 2 metars but but what you said sounds good to me too. :smiley:

Thanks,

Here’s the links to those images if anyone wants to see what I meant. Angelfire must have some
kind of block so you need to copy and paste the links to a new window to view them.
