If you pull the 'historical' WX from NWS page, right about the time of their arrival, the vis went down to 1/2 mi.
This is really what I'm struggling to understand.
In "whiteout" conditions, flying a visual approach, I would almost understand how you land off runway like that.
But from an ILS with low visibility?
