If you are reading a TAF and encounter an unfamiliar weather phenomena code, where can you find a chart with a key?

• A. ABG Appendix B
• B. FAA Aeronautical Chart Users Guide
• C. METAR Legend
• D. NWS Glossary

Answer: (A)

Interpreting unfamiliar weather phenomena codes in a TAF depends on having a lookup chart that maps codes to their meanings. ABG Appendix B contains exactly that—a chart with a key for weather phenomena codes used in TAFs—so you can decode unfamiliar terms quickly during briefing or planning. Other resources like the METAR Legend, FAA Aeronautical Chart Users Guide, or the NWS Glossary offer general definitions or chart information, but they don’t provide the specific TAF-focused code key in a single ready-to-use chart.
