A METAR reports weather measured at an airport at a stated time. It describes an observation, not a forecast.

A Terminal Aerodrome Forecast describes expected conditions around an airport during a specified period.

Aviation advisories describe hazards such as turbulence, icing and thunderstorms over an area and time period.

The time a page loads is different from the time weather was observed or a forecast was issued.

A weather summary does not determine whether an aircraft can fly or a landing zone can be used.

This guide explains weather information. It is not a preflight briefing or a landing-zone assessment.
