Anyone contemplating circling to 33 needs to look at the video again. The ridges near the town, where you will be circling with a strong tailwind pushing you toward the terrain is all obscured by cloud. Just because the METAR has the min weather doesn't mean circling is possible or advisable.

Our SOP is 33, winds permitting or divert.
