'AT' is Steadman Apparent Temperature. About Thermal Comfort Observations - Wind Chill
Wind observations are a 10-minute average from the standard height of 10 metres.
'Dir' is Wind Direction. Direction from which the wind is blowing, reported to 16 points of the compass.
The wind gust is measured over 3 seconds.
'Tce' is a trace (< 0.1mm) of precipitation.
'Press' is Mean Sea Level Pressure. The correction from station level pressure to mean sea level pressure may sometimes use the conditions specified by the International Standard Atmosphere in the conversion process, rather than the conditions at the station at the time of the observation.
'-' indicates that no data is available.
