Agreed. That would only serve to underline why I question being dispatched to fly and land in it. Several flights a year are and few have the data to leave even if it is only light freezing rain.

Then again we scheduled many MD80 flights in Decmeber to places they are incapable of departing without a fuel stop (or at all) if contaminated.

We also classify fields that are snowing as wet runways.

I'll stop now.
