The place I just came from loved using KACY/ACY for an alternate when going into the NYC area if one was required. That is why I picked it right away. sEWarK was OVC005 & 3SM when I released the flight as well as when the updated TAF came out. C055 minimums using 4R/4L was 402-1. The reason I put two on in the first place is, in theory 402-1 is actually 500-1
