Default Weather codes translated...

Not sure if this is the right forum area, but I could not think of where else to post this.

I keep a close eye on the weather at the field I fly. This is the site that I check, http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mesowest/get...e=1&banner=off

I was trying to figure out what the weather codes mean? ie, under the wind column, it has 17G26, then the visibility's, then there is a WX and there is a -RA, followed by the cloud reading, OVC034.

This info was taking form the 21 May 10:25 am line.

If you look, there is diff colors and diff numbers to describe the conditions.

I'm just curious about what it all means.
