It always includes the cloud height or vertical visibility, sky cover, visibility, obstructions to vision, certain atmospheric phenomena, and wind speed and direction that prevail at the time of the observation. Complete observations include the sea level pressure, temperature, dewpoint temperature, and altimeter setting.
